update on the astra
well its been off the road since jan when the head lifted and then filled the sump with coolant.....
in the meantime i bought a A/C tig welder and done the workshop up
its nice to get to working on the car again
the sump had a hole for the oil temp
did lol
i have planned to just drop in a z20net engine as the aem dont care what engine it is.
to run the net i had to get a suitable flywheel to bolt to the crank to give me output to the m32 box a standard net fly wheel with the lugs machined down is what ive got for the job
mounting face at the same height as the m32/z22se flywheel
new rear crank seal going in this one was leaking
took me ages to find the 2 extra machined ARP flywheel bolts
theres the expensive part lol the clutch cost more than this engine and the signum put together lol
got the engine in the car last sunday all bolted in
most of the other stuff got bolted on the same day
bought a standard astra g 2.2 lower rad hose as im moving the elec pump the issue is now the oil cooler is in the way and the selector on the m32
hoping to get the rest of the work done later after i did a chain job today
