I hodgey it's my Craigs old C20xe and F20 box,,, i no it's a good XE hence the only reason it's went in and I got everything!! So it's only the matter of fitting it to my Corsa. I've drove it in his car and felt great!!
You no me I would put nee rubbish in!

Craig and Mieran both had all the FSH and all the receipts on the engine and photos of the full rebuild it's had a few £££'s spent on it and like you said it's been a good'in

Cannot wait to get her on the road and have a go!!!
Not be for long though because then it's clean up mode after that

+ You will see!! Muuuhahahhaha
