The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts.

I'm pretty sure that car has the full LC running gear transplanted into it.

No really I've got one!
Needs a gearbox though as the Omega V6 box bolts up to the 2.0 Carlton engine but not the straight sixers.

Hang on though... you've got a 2.2 right?  hmmmmmm!   ::)

Hmmm we need to figure that out then.
If the bell housing bolt pattern is the same as the sixers we're on!
