is the engine number on a c16xe here?
i trying to get a clutch for the car and apparently the clutch type changed in 1994 and they need the engine number so as to send the right one.
now ive read the number there its says c16xe 20109755 i sent that off to this place and they said the engine number makes no sense.
is the number writen anywere else....?

i dont know, but when i had my MOT the guy there said that as the car has a different head on it, he couldnt find the engine number and therefore put it through the 'others' emissions test :S meant it sailed through tho

this is the mail he sent me.....
Hello
Thanks, but that engine No. doesn't really make sense!
The C16XE engines have a clutch change during 1994 as follows:
Early models upto engine No. 20B96111
or
Engine No. 20B96112 on
Perhaps a Vauxhall dealer can advise you?
Yes, these are a 3 pice clutch kit
Kind regards
E & O.E.

Digging up an old thread...
I'm trying to get a clutch from there too, but I can't read the last 2 engine numbers at all, its like they don't exist 
All I can read is...
X16XEL 206422
and yes I know its an X16XEL - I was a bit miffed when I found this out but both inlet manifolds, piping, ecu, exhasut manifold, etc... all match X16XE part numbers, so looks like its only the head & block which is different...

if you get a lamp and put it up from underneath it shows ths number up quite well.....
anyways i was talking to a chap in vaux and he said that all the GSI clutchs were the same....
i got the 200mm like the haynes says seems to be fine.....
