Been offered a corsa shell for pennys and i have a 1.2 8v engine knocking about in my garage,im just need to know the shell was originally a 1 litre ecotec,do i need to swop the engine looms over to or will it work on the 1.2?
and would i have anyother problems chucking the 1.2 in the 1 litre shell such as engine mountings driveshafts etc?
Cheers

W0L000073V4410705
X10XE - 19A27199
W0L = General Motors
000073 = 3 Door Hatch / Van
V = 1997
4 = Zaragoza
410705 = SERIAL NUMBER
1.2 should go in easy enough i recon

Mounts are different mind. Just use 1.2 ones? Possible?
