yeah i would say that lee would do it for you! ring a vaux breakers or ask lee to find you a 1600 16v ecotoec lump, then he will fit it, whack some 2l 16v brakes and a mantzel inlet mainfold and de cat pipe! that lot would probably cost you around 1000 and you would have a about 125-135 bhp | |

Chatham is just the other side of the Thames from Southend -- but it's about a 40 miles drive by the time you've gone back to the Dartford crossing and round... | |
