you can use a gsi bottom block and a good engineering shop can fit the oil pipe thats needed, hole already blocked off just needs machined out and return pipe fitted.

hope this helps

Easy boys,
thanks for all your help - we've found what we're looking for and have an engine heading north right now. Look out for new rally car at teambrowns.co.uk - Nova GSi with Calibra Turbo 4x4 running gear
