Ok here goes, the last rebuild of the 1.4 8v SPI (C14NZ) lump in my car has been done, and I dont expect much out of it, say roughly a further 2k-3k miles. Its had its life, 3 complete rebuilds incuding the one just done, and its getting less & less reliable...
So what engine should I get hold of?? I've had a few suggestions, ideas, but cash is very tight due to the fact I'm out of work and have naf all in the bank :(
I've put a few suggestions up, but just need help choosing.
Don't forget, cash is limited (non-existent), so the C20LET aint an option!!
Also the C20XE is there, but might not happen, again due to cash problems!!
