1.9 16v.... same power roughly as c20xe vaux engine.

baffled sump.... wee gates/flaps/walls in the sump to help keep oil in the sump where the pickup pipe is... These engines are renound for oil starvation on track... most cars are actually.

Its a mod i've been meaning to do to the corsa for ages

there are normally a good few on ebay.

I wouldnt worry to much about a track car being in good 'looking' condition. Its going to get battle scarred

Just make sure its solid, the rear beam is working etc.... and the engine has good compresion.

Even a 1.6 or 1.9 8v GTi is a great track car.
