Nice to read how someone else builds his 16V conversion! I like your gearbox conversion.

This is my wideblock/eclipse shortblock.

not to mention the shit fuel you people have on the wrong side of the earth.

although, temps are much lower on that side than they are here.. and we take more care of our cars :P

Redzone, I thought it was just my crappy iPhone that was the problem that I couldn't see the pictures! If it helps could you send the pictures to my email address, the pictures of the convertion that is, he he! If you send the pictures I will access them at work and print them out as my phone will take ages to upload them. Any help on this would help me out no end as am starting to disappear up my own assh**e with the amount of info overload!

Thanks,
T-man

I may actually have ALL the pics from this thread cos I think I saved it on my work computer as an entire thread. I'll check, and if so, I can send them to you to re-upload, can send the whole thing in a zip file so you know where they all go if that helps?
