            it is fasterfords
            about 5 years ago it had a brand new( not rebuilt)4wd engine fitted by graham goode,its only done just under 20k on this engine and the milage is still only 82k with all the history you could want.i have a bill for £4300 for the engine including fitting.

            as clint says its better to start with the stronger engine to mod,its still only stage1 at the mo and has 240 @ the wheels,trying hard not to go to greens again like i had in my sapphire( that was a rocket,ask clint)

                  Its got the wrong cam belt cover and the head is green, it should be red, so it probably is a 4x4 block.

                  But it was just a guess

                    its not just the block thats 4wd the head is aswell,take a closer look
                    g mac thats right is was,it should be going in to the paint shop in a couple of weks to do the little bits that bug me,theres only about £200 worth to do so not much,dont want a complete respray yet as i would like to keep it looking like its true age for a little while longer,have you seen my old sapp that mark has now?

                        Very nice Bluey

                        I think white is the best colour for a 3dr, even though mine is black.

                          im glad i got white as it stands out well,but i do like the monnstone blue the most,but when they start to get a bit rough they look really rough.
                          quicky is yours the one with the 17 bbs wheels,they look the nuts,wouldn't mind a set myself

                              Another tel -tale sign being a 4x4 is the position of the actuator. On 2wd the act sit above the turbo on the 4x4 you can see its to the side.. Unfortantly this restricts the amount of power as the 2wd manifold is better for power but then again the 4x4 block is stronger. My 3dr was rebuilt using a 4x4 block and 2wd head and a 4x4 intercooler best of both worlds nick
