clutch hose modification
This will work,just cut the ferrules off your old pipes that go into the master and slave,work out the amount of pipe you need and get the ends flared.Old style autoshops will do this for a few quid.Or offer a garage guy a drink to do it for you.

Me likey
Showing my age a bit here but i remember one twirling around on a stand and the Brum Nec many years ago when they were spanking new.Liked them then but now mmm im not sure,it really is just a carlton that was tweaked,they handle like boats id imagine.The gsi3000 never handled that well so id imagine that wont either.Come to think of no Vauxhall did then.They always had a poor chassis compared to other cars.Anybody that owned an sri,gte or gsi from back in the day will know what i mean.With any performance Vauxhall then you just hung on for dear life when you gave it beans and it just rolled and lifted wheels as it pleased.

Zedworld Chipped ECU
Ive returned 260 miles out of mine to a tank of fuel and im using 555 injectors and can drive quite "heavy" so it shouldnt cost you that much bud.

Uprating camshafts
Youll need sprocket adaptors and depending on the camshaft specs maybe hardened springs and retainers.Mild road grinds will be fine but some of the crazier profiles will need maybe vernier inlet sprockets or BDE ones and possibly with the really high lift profiles some head machining and solid lifter fitting.

Has the flywheel been skimmed at all,seen some skimmed flat which reduces the covers clamping force.

Rare Alfa
I found this on e bay,rare old car this,i remember seeing one at the Brum motor show in the 90,s.It was really out there when it came out.Be a nice investment for someone.Id hate to try and get parts for it though. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=180725097141&category=9834&_trksid=p5197.c0.m619

Zedworld chip fitted today
Thats some nice figures but id be amazed if the car made 440ftlb or torque on a stage one chip.Im not saying your lying but the dyno is reading way to high a torque reading so id take that with a pinch of salt imho.Ive spent thousands on my engine and not made that amount of torque.417 ft lb is the best i could make with a custom map !!

update on my swb restoration
THe rebuild pics are amazing,great work,i love threads like this :gunsmilie:

Rough idea of cost to repair?
They are only good for sunken panels not proper dents or creases.The only fix then is a stud puller as mentioned.

classic muscle cars
Hemi cuda,dodge challenger or a plymouth roadrunner perhaps,all classic v8 power houses.Or maybe a Cadillac fleetwood Brougham.8.2 Liters.very good in London traffic Lol
-
Standard turbos + big injectors etc question?
THe main problem with small tubs is heat soak,once you really start to wind them up the charge temps soar,i know you have side mounts but you will find them very limiting,those tiny impellers will run out of puff very quickly.Ignore what the yanks say,there figures are tongue in cheek to say the least.A stock tubs life will shorten massively once you start running 15psi + also.

classic muscle cars
Everyday car and v8 equals vxr8 or a cl 63,not classic yet but will scratch your v8 itch for sure.
