Progress on my Bravo

"well i cant remember where i last updated but anyhow lol recently done an engine change on here. not so straight forward a mk1 1.6 to a mk2 1.6 full loom box the lot: engine thing lol did a little but waiting for some gasketts before i can carry on sorted my injectors and noticed why the car ran so ...had one injector down. u can see the different in these pictures: Failed injector: working: u can see the failed one is brown...it shoulnt be lol got one gaskett so did a little only a few. i had some red wire and jose covers which i got of a mate ages ago. thought id put them on while im busy all done and dusted now and my brakes!!! acid dipped and zinc plated lol "

"lookin good atleast it was warm enough for you to strip i'm doin a standard swap anytime after next tuesday but its freeezin. love the nice clean carpet always look best when they've been done when they're out of the car. so forgive me for being ignorant but what the difference between the MK1 and MK2 engine? is the MK1 8v or something????? must of been a good reason for all that work looking really good tho"

no real difference just the wiring and the inlet manifold. i had to change all that. the main reason was it had half the miles the old engine had.

"Looking good that shaun. aint that the second engine swap youve done? within like 4 month? keep us updated man liking the progress."
