Does anyone know anywhere that makes the mounts for a c20let into a corsa c? There's not a lot of information regarding this conversion on the web as I gather it's not too common. I know M tec do a lot but it's 1900euros 😳
Also any other advice from any one who's done the conversion would be great 👍

as the c20 and z20 share the same block can't you use them mounts?
its not that common because the c20 is an old engine now, hard to find a good one and ecu does not support canbus so you need to piggyback standard ecu in order to get dash to work. or go fully standalone.

Are the c20 and z20 blocks exactly the same in terms of mounting then? I always thought they were different but I could well be wrong. I'm currently rebuilding the c20let at the minute so seems a waste not to use it. As for the wiring it shouldn't be too difficult to piggyback the original ecu to get the clocks working etc

i know of people using x20xev blocks in both c20 and z20 cars, and c20 in z20's so the casting must be the same on the out side.
you may need a different cam belt cover as the mount is on the end of the block for astra g/corsa c
