    Astra GTE Engine + Throttle Bodies

    Zak/Trig,

    Whats the power potential from this lump?
    Anything to be aware of?
    Is it a 1.8 or a 2.0?

    Got any vids of one with TBs? What engine was that Nova running Trig?

    Cheers,

    Lee.

    /\ what he said. The engine is good to go....bottom end strong, sodium filled exhaust valves, hollow cams. Standard car is a conservative 150 with no Cat.....no 170 or more.
