Can anyone suggest a good place to get myself a 1.6L carbie engine? I'm thinking its about time the old zook got an upgrade
Recon'd would be preferred, some place in NSW if possible.

Acquire 1.6
Good luck, hate to burst your bubble but their are not many around these days. I work for a Japanese parts importer and they are virtually non existant out of Japan. We have just put together a container this week and we could not find any of these engines at all. We can still manage to find some of the 16V engines and will also have a G16 16V Vitara half cut in this next shipment.

I hate going to weddings because all the grandma's used to poke me in the ribs saying you're next, you're next. They've stopped doing it since I started doing it to them at funerals.

just take all the computer gear off and either find a 8valve carbie vitara head or bolt the 1.3 head on with some extractors!!

I recently fitted a g16b block to a g13ba head in a coily sierra used g16a timing belt, 1.3 inlet and exhaust manifolds and carby modified the sump and pickup etc, and used benT adaptor kit ($200) I didn't use a bodylift the top of the intake did touch the hood linner but was only rubbing. engine went fantastic! gave it back to the owner (a mate) 3 days later it was hit in the front and writen off! 
very sad but if I did it again I would find a block only and work from there and benT's kit was awsome!
there is a 1.6 block on ebay now looks a bit (how ya going) but for 100 bucks good starting point on a budget
