after getting a letter from the building management to move it or loose it i decided to take the xe from the corsa and transplant it into the tigra.


had it running yesterday after getting the engine mounts for the tigra i got it mounted correctly and it started after 2 turns which was promising.

heres a few pics:

good work, dude
what was up with the corsa or did you just fancy a swap?

i didn't notice a particular difference with the arb on or off, so just left it off.

myke!

nothing up really, just the tigra was in better condition and cleaner but the engine was a bit of a smoker so thought it best to swap.
