Awe close to the original, but not. Luckily ecotect motors are cheeeepcheeep  Deduct ur motors cash first, then you see how much you have for the body and so.

I never sourced a motor a before. So wont be able to help you there. But sure someone must have a connection with ecotec motors, check gumtree, shop around and compare prices. Check the OOC forum aswell, some of them sell motors on a regular basis. But mods mos ezi:throttles, management, cams, branches, exhaust, gears (here a dude on the forum that makes verniers at a good price) If you want to experiment,play around with the intake. I also wanted a GTE at a stage. Legend
