Just weighing up my option mate
Erm..........Just weighing up my option mate
Sod that for and option, just looked at some prices,Erm..........
Its ok Jim don't panic just yet, I need to weigh up what it will cost to do an engine swap as well as rear axle against buying a cat c 3.0l, if I was to buy a cat c I wouldn't strip mine as that would make it worthless, I would simply start again.I don't like this discussion at all @Sean d i see my chances of having that car fading away with each word I read! But a 3.2 with six gears would be appealing no doubt. Wish I had an extra gear for my 1.9! Anyone know of a trans that fits?? JIM
Very nice SeanGot on the engine bay project today, bonnet landing panel is done,

You may well be right oh grumpy one, I can source a 3.0 complete for around £500 but then the labour would add a lot to that @Lee could you give me some sort of idea on labour costsNow then now then. Looks good mate.
Still think with your car being as good as it is a transplant is the answer.
