Now the rude question...what sort of damage was done to your bank account?

This was a Complete engine change but Ive kept the IB5 gearbox, so far it's holding out well and is a nicer box compared to the sloppy PG1,
I have a backup PG1 should the current one go Bang..
The VVC head can & has been fitted to other bottom ends but why do half a job ??
The question of what it cost - Well, if I never told the Mrs then I wont be telling you lot..
Wasnt as much as you would think & much cheaper than the last guy offering the 160VVC conversion wanted to charge,
and a deal was done for my old engine with some goodies on it..
Send an enquiry to Goldie if your interested..
