Love the project japkadett, I'm doing something very similar, putting a DOHC NA 4g63 into a chevette wagon. Any details on what you did for a sump? Cheers, keep the awesome work going, and the pictures flowing!  . |

thanks people, i got inspiration from this site to strip down and clean up engine bay, as i was never planning to restore the car yet, modded the wiper motor round about 30 deg or so to make room for the coil pack to sit on bulk another trick i found on here,  |
