If you're still after an inlet this may be of interest:

Not done much lately but the other day the clutch gave up so thought it would be a good chance to swap the engines over!
Got the engine out today just waiting for the clutch to come then the VVC can go in!

Not up dated this for a while, The VVC is in a running Just it needs coils and camshaft sensor as its running rubbish and limited to 5,900rpm so there on there way, but its a big improvement on the 1.6 just cant wait to have it running its best. here's the latest photos ive got with the engine in but not with everything on.
