An interesting day! NF/NG swap

[alan pritchard]

Thanks all for that info, Unfortunatrely i visited the donor car today and
it had had its fair share of parts removed already, which left me a bit
aprehensive, so i shall look out for one with a more complete engine bay!
And your right huw, it is an early cgt.   I have obviously been on this list
too long!!! LOL
