Well he should take credit considering he had to rebuild the engine after it blew up on the way home, Qoute " because of a bearing put round the wrong way & blocked oil pressure ".

Why not he paid the money for it. Take the credit and enjoy the 15 mins of fame and be admired by thousands of spotty, chavy teenage boys

I know I said the guy who owns it now should take the credit for it.

James rebuilt that engine a fair few times himself due to problems, just because it breaks for this guy and he has to do the same doesnt mean he can take full credit wouldnt be so bad if he had at least mentioned his name its not like he made the corsa look like that. (I presume its still got the white dtms and the british flag rocker cover I havent seen feature yet....)

this the one that reckons could get 250bhp out of, even though it was a very mild engine, and even QED qouted the cams at 220bhp max?

if so nice car, but way out on what gen power was. good for pub talk though
