Is running 
Lee text me this morning saying "connected up the speed sensor and the transponder smoked and melted so now have no transponder"
Which would mean that I would have to buy a blank ECU 
He then text me saying, "only joking all wired in and is running" 
I loved him and hated him all at once

No plans for the engine just yet, I just want to get it back and have it sprayed before I spend the money I've put aside to have it all done

1.6 
should shift quite well as its stripped & given the fact the nova shell is also about 100k lighter than a corsa one

Nova shell is stupidly lighter than Corsa shell, things like the doors and boot are a good example, Lee commented on how he needs a couple of people to move a Corsa where as he can move my Nova by himself 
Weighs nothing, gonna shift. Can't wait
