in in 2 minds about this i am able to get the engine and i can fit it myself but one thing i am yet to find out/know is... the two looms, is there much differences with the looms on the two engines?
will i need the full loom from the cavalier or would it be plug and play from my original 1200 8v corsa loom? any help would be great cheers. what sort of power is the 1600? im not after mad power i just wanted the be able to accelerate half decently compared to the slow slow 12 lol
cheers
