Is there any other engine apart from a vauxhall one (C20XE, C20LET etc etc) that would fit into a corsa? i know you could probably get any engine in with heavy modifications but i mean one that would fit in with little work needed like an XE?

What about the engine out of a Daewoo Nexia?
The car was based on an Astra Mk2, but updated a bit.
I think these are a 2.0 16v.
Never heard of it being done before.

no. its a 6.0 V8, 2 more cylinders and 3.5 litres bigger capacity. dwarfs the V6. my dad has a 3.6 V6 commodore and the engine is tiny compared to the V8
