Hi all,
In the middle of turning my already fast 1.4 16v Sport into a 2.0 16v monster! With buying a full Redtop conversion kit I now have all the necessary parts to convert any Corsa into a 1.4 16v. These engines are very quick and reliable and mine has never skipped a beat. I'm into my cars and always made sure the engine is topped off with Oil and Water. The engine runs sweet and always feels strong and ready to go. Its even very economical too. £10 gets me from Carlisle to Glasgow(home to uni) with plenty more jip in the tank for the week ahead.
This the car the engine is being taken out of:
The price I have quoted includes Engine, Gearbox, loom, ECU, shafts etc and fitting the engine to any Corsa B also.
All you have to do is get your Corsa to Stafford and pay £450
So if you've been longing to get more oomph from your 1.0/1.2 etc then here's the perfect upgrade.
_____
-Insurance is cheap at only group 6 level
-Engine has covered 84k with all MOT's to prove genuine mileage
-"pictures to follow or u2u me"
Thanks for looking, Ross.

Not in a hurry to sell but just wondered if anyone actually wanted the engine? If you dont want it fitted then I can just supply engine. Also open to offers too

Not really sure how much for just engine as was hoping to sell with gearbox, manifold, ECU, shafts, hubs, A/C radiator and A/C setup, brakes, loom etc aswell. I'd be happy with £200 for the lot.

LOL Cheers lad, probably just going to put the lot up on Ebay and see what happens.
Norcy91 - Whereabouts do you live? I would be happy to sell engine but then would be stuck with other parts. Would you accept £100 for engine? If i do sell engine does anybody else need any of the other parts? Would be left with
- 1.4 gearbox
- ECU
- manifold
- loom
- A/C kit inc. double radiator
- shafts and hubs and vented full brake setup

Im just near leeds so stafford wouldnt be too bad to come to compared to ones i've seen further down south. Yeah i think £100 sounds good for the engine

Ok mate you got a deal if your happy with £100 collected then it's all yours. If you want to view engine running in car all still connected up and working mint then it would have to be Sunday or throughout following week before engine is taken out unless you want to come up to Carlisle to view it and give it a drive.

Not sure if i'd be able to come up to see it running and to drive it, i'd have to see when im free to do that. Do you have any idea when the engine would be out of the car?

It will be between 18th and 25th but probably more towards 18th as this engine being taken out is the first step in a long line of instructions lol

No not at all really. Just when ever is convenient for yourself. I wont personally be there to see you as i'm leaving my car in Stafford to get conversion but you can do a bank transfer and I can make up a receipt for you and post it to you.
