my conversation with my 'future' wife a few hours ago.

Me: "hon, can i take sum money of our account?"
Mrs: "for what hon?"
Me: "i want to make our life better in the future"
Mrs: "and how will you be able to do that?"
Me: "by buying a legendary engine (Mi16) or a turbo lump from UK"
Mrs: "and what does it do for us?"
Me: "..... make ... our life ... better?"
Mrs: "how ? ..... "
Mrs: ".................. better?"

5 mins later

Me: "can i plz ? ..... "
Mrs: "which one you choose? Mi16 ? or me?"
Me: "Mi16"
Mrs: "&^#*(&)@&(#&&@^%*&#(^&&%#^@&$(*@&^%$&^"

Kenny, you will have to learn to conceal your spending on anything automotive.

Mrs Kenny (if she's like the rest of the female population) will not spend a single penny on any car unless it breaks and has to be fixed. It's as simple as that

What you must do is get the engine shipped over and then tell her your friend found it whilst clearing out his garage and gave it to you

I believe you've mastered these skills not only for automotive consumption ....

k3nny if your after a better engine i wouldnt bother with the Mi16 in yours
as for one getting parts for it would be a mission! as most tend to need a rebuild by now

i would go for the turbo lump

as most parts on that engine cross over to so many other french models so parts would be easyer to get hold of
plus its a lot better engine in my book more power when you need it i.e low down not over 4k like the Mi
dont get me wrong the Mi16 is a fan bloody tastic engine as long as you keep the revs up but then your drinking fuel lol

but if it is a Mi16 engine you want buy it with the car around it

can not beat a good blast down the country lanes in a 405 Mi16
i miss mine

My biggest concern (which i have think it over and over) .... are;

- will it sit / fit perfectly with my engine mounting (2.0 16v XU10J4R)
- the common spare parts for it, like fan belt, electrical bits, oil filter etc. are they the same ones like the 10J4R

once i got all the information covered, .... i'm gonna start babbling out to Niz with lotsa questions !!

.... that if i've mastered the skills from welton though.

The guys who are selling it will give you the engine mounts with it if you ask them, they will give you everything you need for a little extra I've had a few bits off them, they are good guys !

Thanks for the heads up PJ,

I believe i've heard that "if you wanna buy some stupid turbo thingy from uk, then go ahead. do whatever you want." from my mrs.

i'll make sure she really mean it before 'proceeding' ...
