A few Engine photos

You cant beat old school, a lot less of that electrickery involved.
Picked up another pinto yesterday off ebay £21.06 will overhaul it and keep for the next project, on saying that Ayjay was looking at it cos he is already on another build but the engine he has bought is to big to go in so it may go off in that direction.
The 1.8 in the photo is to go in after iva as you can't read the engine number fully but you can on the 1.6, so plan is iva with 1.6 and then swap for 1.8 straight after

What will you put on the V5 for the engine number if you cant read it? If you guess you may end up with your car looking like a ringer with someone elses engine number on it.

Going to put the 1.6 in for the test and afterwards change it to 1.8 hush hush

You will need to supply the engine number (with proof and the Burton catalogue doesn't count) to the DVLA to change the V5C to 1.8.
