Its more work than a let, less room to move in the bay, usually gives you problems with the steering rack and it'll handle worse.
Sounds mega though 
There are a few V6 project threads, probably worth having a poke about in there as a first thing.
If you want to search, use the engine codes c25xe and x25xe.

First thing your shell is the best to use as it is the bog spec
you will need mounts made
exhaust fabricated because its at the back not front
front end will need strengthening
easy up grades and go really well but are front end heavy so will need a good setup and brakes make sure there good also
my mate has one in his corsa i will ask him for details

Handling will be better than an LET corsa anyway as long as you uprate the suspension to cope.

Exhaust is at the back and front.
Just the rear manifold fouls against the steering rack so it needs cut so the bends aren't at so much of an angle.
