how much labour?
How much labour are we talking about to do a full conversion, basically whip everything from a 1.6 rallye converted vtr into a 1.1? I would assume pritty much everything would need to go over... also i would change the axels and brakes over too...
Hours... and Rough amount of work?
Considering options thats all..
cheers fellas!

Reason i was asking for hours etc is because my mechanic could do it, and he charges me £20-25 p/h.... Plus i'd like to chip in and learn a few things whilst watching.
