 this is quality work, i am impressed by how neatly you have solved the engine mount / turbo position problem.

 

 I am right that is Monaco blue paint? anyway that shade of blue will really suit a MK 1 Cavalier and i like the retention of the chrome bumpers, it will be a bit of a 'sleeper'  I would love to see the look on the face of young chav in his hot hatch when this Cavalier blows him into the weeds !!

Cheers man not really the manifold went straight on to flange with a few tweaks to line it up im running a qauife atb lsd 4:6:1 final drive with a steel torque tube . The front brakes are calibra turbo setup with drilled and grooved discs and good ridge hoses. the rear are mk 4 Astra disc setup will get more pics of these up soon when they are all plumbed up
