Absolutely no issues what so ever. Crank and bearings etc are absolutely mint.

Cheers Dave. I do enjoy tinkering. The cars still up and running with spare engine in, it's all good. But fancy bit more power. 500 is a nice round number. So having new valve train and cams. Will get the head sorted first as have all the bits. Skunk2 ultra intake and tb aswell. Then onto the block. Which is where I need to save up again unfortunately but won't take to long. New pistons and a CSS installed. Then simply a new set of Injectors I recon should be at or very close to 500hp.

Yes mate - that looks well good

Decided wanted intake black. Came out well

Sooooo...................MOT day and they've just called. She's passed!!! Went to have a look on the gov mot website to see if any advisories but they must be updating it as she currently shows as a red Astra!! She was deffo showing as a mini on their at the start of the week lol. So chuffed, always dread the 1st mot I put a car through as it can sometimes show up things you couldn't see when buying them. Although, tbf, I have been pretty much up close and personal with Poppy's underside with all the exhaust work etc lol Picking her up later so looking forward to getting to drive her again! Off to Glasgow tomorrow in Poppy to Gayle's sisters so be first long run since all the work was done.

She's going to be even more of a beast with all that attention mate - very nice.

Yeah, there's a visual trick though that when you go up to a bigger rim, the smaller tyre makes the gap seem bigger... Leading to lowering urges
