Started with the conversion on Saturday afternoon. Took out the old throttle bodies 2l 8v motor and had the V6 mounted by Late evening. Spend the better part of Sunday with a sump issue and intake as the throttle body on the intake was damaged. Using an 8v throttle in the mean time. Started her without an exhaust by 10pm. Took the car for exhaust yesterday afternoon and started tuning last night. Plans for the near future is to turbo charge this engine.  Will take some more pics later.

Car goes lekker but neeed to get a bigger throttle cause the 8v throttle to small. Lots and lots off low down torque. _________________ MSX ForumCorsa 130ie Sedan 1680 16v Ecotec GSXR1000 ITB's (44mm) MSX Management 149.8kw/203Nm
