still have change the mounts mate and a pointless conversion if you ask me. best way to go is a 2.0l 8v engine with a nove gte gear box. no changing mounts and no fuck ups. and before any one says may as well use the redtop then i say no. dont get me wrong i tell people that all the time but if its an easy transplant ye want and big power gains then the 8v is the way to do it. oh and th 8v can be tuned more than redtops or eco tec. oh and eco tec are shit ive blown fuckin loads of em. 1.8's, 2.0l's, gsi's, sri's, the fucking lot. use the 8v from a cavalier you might have to swap the odd thing like water pump or the odd pully with a calibra or astra but it will go straight in. if ye want daft power then stick some twin 40's on it and watch it go.
