What all is needed to put a 2.0 8v cav engine into a corsa.. does it make a difference whether you have an 8v shell or 16v?
Thanks

With a C20NE you'd probably be alright with the 1.6 Sport brakes seeing as the power isn't that different, but the C20SEH I'd personally put bigger ones on seeing as it's around 130bhp.

True, didn't think of that.
Get a donor car like myatt did and use all the bits off that then
