i know this is asked all the time but does anyone know of any good insurance companys for engine conversions (19 years old 2 years no claims 1.2 8v current engine but i want to do the 1.6 sport conversion) i have tryed the following
Brentacre wanted £1,030 tpft 120 bhp limit
Flux found a company £1,676 tpft
Endsleigh couldnt do it
Performance Direct wanted £1,300 tpft
the cheapest quote ive had with my 1.2 is
norwich union £771 f/comp but then i fount there simple cover and it said £612 fully comp but they wont cover me with an engine conversion.
anyone got any other companys that would be good to try

Is it not possible to just buy a 1.6 sport? This then negates the need for a special policy for an engine conversion but still gives you the power you want all done (probly cheaper nowadays as well)?

Plus you will get all the extras like PAS, EW, EM, CL etc.

That too, its a whole lot less hassle, cos from what I have read on here (not done it myself) theres always something to go wrong with an engine transplant
