2 grand and 4 grand pull are for shite fucked engines.

loosk the same yes but has smaller ports and the biggest valves of the F7's.

The megane lump makes the most torque and power with the least amount of cam, willy cams in the megane engine makes a power and torque curve the williams can only dream about

I say no. Either sort the blue hatch and put the engine in that, or get that boys GTT and put it in there.

that boy and his gtt have not been back and theres no way I would ever dream of putting a gtt engine in any 16V. The 1.4 yeah, but not a 16V.

You've got it the wrong way round Chris.

sod that neal, not at the moment anyway!

Black one might be going tomorrow.

the white ones in the paper

5 muppet pulled out, because they lacked the basic skills to realise glasgow in scotland isn't 10 miles from london.

I need them all gone and the only 2 cars I would keep are the blue chammy and blue hatch.

Blue hatch i don't want to mess around with, its only had 1 previous owner, thats a concours keep for 10 years and make immaculate job, the chammy, thats a smoker to be ragged.

Yes Deffo, I've been in and seen Leanne megane powered 19. And it's goes well for a ph2 with all the weight in. A ph1 with no ICE etc. it's going to be a rocket. Plus the ph1 will cope with the power better.
