    Before you set off to work in the morning apply grease to all 4 discs - this will help prevent future rust development

    FAO Technically minded types!

    172 cats differ - a mk2 wont fit a mk1. If you work at the garage why dont you just reverse another car up to the MOT bay and stick the emissions probe in the back box of the other car ???? ;) Other option is fit a new cat

    what else can i have done to the engine while its in bits

    I am J3ned :) - a 1.8 16v lump with box ECU and loom will set you back about £500 for a good one were as the 1.8 8v is a lot more common and a hell of a lot cheaper. Power difference will be greatly improved compared to your 1.4 and from an insurance point of view looking at a 1.8 8v lump will...

    what else can i have done to the engine while its in bits

    You could drop an RSi engine (1.8 8v ) in the car for about £200 - that would the easiest option. Pointless messin with the 1.4 E7J lump - not much you can do with them
