swilding Posted February 21, 2002 Share Posted February 21, 2002 mike, The only information that I've ever found is in the Haynes manual for the Astra GTE. Hope that this is of some help. Si Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ACW Posted February 25, 2002 Share Posted February 25, 2002 Seconded, Haynes Manual is best for a how to strip and re-build. Dont forget many of the stress bearing bolts on this engine are angle tighten stetch bolts. This means they MUST be replaced on re-assembly. This includes: Big Ends (replace with HD bolts) Main Bearings Head Bolts (two types depending on engine age) Crank Pulley bolt Flywheel Bolt Cam pulley bolts You can get parts reasonably from SBD or QED (see links section on website).
