New engine! :D

The place to socialise, and relax, if it doesn't fit into anything below it fits here, so tell us that joke, or share that story of your last off-road escapade, but remember new comers the virtual drinks are on you!

Oh I thought it was the swift 1.3 16v - which is dohc isn't it? I did wonder why twiss would be wanting to lose 300cc!

I had an m reg lwb 16v but for a while, I never did much with it

Yeah the 1.3 swift gti lump is dohc, I'm toying with one of those for the LJ, either that or a K10a wagon-r turbo lump if I can find one. 750kg with 100bhp should go well in a straight line :rockin:
