Is it any harder to fit a 2.0 ecotec over a 1.8? Is there much difference? I'm thinking about doing this same conversion, how hard is it?
Conversion is easy.

The exhaust thats on it is the same size as the 1.6 16v is it not? an that standard is not much less power than a x18xe1?

Nice little project.
With your rear ARB, have you got the round bushes on right?
On mine I've got one either side of the bar, and one inside the beam
