power steering and aircon pump come away from block, remove tensioner and swap damped crank pulley for an underdrive so you run a straight belt to the alternator

So how good will the new Westfield be ? I wonder if I should keep my old Striker and try one of these in it ? How much are these engines going for then and is there a rwd bellhousing available ?

boggo standard GM europe would most likely fit.

not much weight over the rear wheels, so you will need to get used to looking sideways a lot

Z20let 155kg 341,7pounds acording to Din 70020
Z16let/ler/leh 130,6kG 287,9pounds acording to Din 70020

Does anyone know the wheight of the Z20leh engine

The M32 gearbox seems to be heavier than the F23.
