Danny D114BCW Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 Rutts on here has a 5 speed gearbox for sale and i think on ebay there's a complete GTE engine. Up near Newcastle I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mickfrad Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 (edited) There has been an engine with loom and a gearbox listed a couple of times on eBay recently. Unfortunately sold or not listed at the moment. i did come across this though. https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F184020122504 Maybe not what your looking for but will definitely be of interest to someone. I did come across a couple of 1.9 cih's in Bristol though, https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F283476875487 https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F283476873314 same dealer Edited December 16, 2019 by Mickfrad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jessopia74 Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 It was here https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Opel-Manta-2-0-Gte-Engine-Complete-With-Loom-/184075948459 could be worth sending message to seller see if he still has it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaytoKing Posted December 16, 2019 Author Share Posted December 16, 2019 I did ask a couple of questions about the £120 engine on Ebay, but he didn't get back to me in time and sadly it sold! Want to keep the engine swap as basic as possible to improve my chances of getting the car on the road by May 2020. Two seats in a rolling project is the aim.

I might have a Redtop available, with engine mounts and ecu loom etc. If you go the 1.8 dizzy route it’s about as drop in as you can get for a modern lump. The other alternative is 1.8 & box and use a 2.0 Sri 130 lump and injection. A little weight saving over the CIH too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaytoKing Posted December 18, 2019 Author Share Posted December 18, 2019 Thanks for the offer, but I am looking for a fairly cheap gte engine and I've got a few months to find it. I'd love to buy the c20let on ebay, but I'd have to upgrade everything to support it and that would be costly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plumster Posted December 20, 2019 Share Posted December 20, 2019 What is the difference between the E and S version of the engine? Just curious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mickfrad Posted January 14, 2020 Share Posted January 14, 2020 2.0 cih available on eBay not injection but may suit your needs. https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F303445206329 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
