Haha cheers Jamie.
Have you got your mounts on yet? Such a win! Handling wise, its just re-fit upper brace (needs new holes drilling for eccentric top mounts) get trailing arms cambered, and get a cage welded in. Soo many smiles per gallon ![[Image: car-1.jpg]](http://i1117.photobucket.com/albums/k591/grant-306/car-1.jpg) Member of the 99% warning or you're nothing club 2000 Moonstone 1.8 Meridian - Sold 2000 China 3dr XS - Dead 1998 Diablo 3dr XSI

Think Jamie meant the 1.8 engine is better suited to the 306 chassis with regards to weight-distribution etc.
Looking tidy dude, you driven it in the wet with that camber yet?

Niall you can't say it handles better than mine when you haven't been in mine!
and blahblah 1.8 blah. until someone actually does (not just talks about) something interesting with 1.8s it's irrelevant; booooooring!

Or am I so special I get referred to by name twice in the same post? When have you been in my car?! I forget?! Srsly, I'm almost certain you've never been in it. Grant has, but only in the wet with a *cough*unplugged *cough* TPS... And yes we need to discuss this clearly [/size]

You took me out in the non shortened 306 just after you got it round the roads near you.

Except they're a better engine too... Shorter throw crank, lower mean piston speed, loves to rev, ally block with damp liners... Bloody perfect

I think I remember; it was on the '6 rear beam though; handles WAY better on the VTS beam, specially with the GAZ dampers. :\ Which means it didnt happen. Which means my car still handles better than Grants. Mostly cause it has the correct engine... /canofworms
