Regal shall do it, but it will cost u an arm and a leg.
Everyone calls regals work shoddy, but IMO the work they did on steveWs car is really really good.
Im not sure if there are fitting kits availible, speak to Lee mitchell about it

Gonna cost lots... wiring will be gey... engine will be hard to source. Not much help I know, but all very true
Why specifically use a VX220 engine??

Regal have already put a Z20LET into a corsa C before, so they know the headaches and costs involved.
Your looking at the other side of £5.5k.
Take into account suspension and brake upgrades too.

its the same engine as that found in the Astra GSi, that would be suffice for your needs.

What i know of there is:
A Black one with a C20LET, been about ages, and pushing 300+ BHP
A Light green one, again with a C20LET, pushing big power, and from Holland (the one out of tottal Vauxhall)
An Arden Blue Z20LET That regal did, and heared some silly prices of it costing around £14k
Another Z20LET in an Ultra Blue car, but ive only seen one pic of it in the engine bay, and am doubious about its existance
And finally a Breeze blue one with an X25XE V6 in it .

and that statement makes you sound like a chav! j/k
Astra GSi and Zafira GSi both use the Z20LET. You're better off getting one from these as not only are they more common, but you'll find things like mounts, gear linkages and fannymoulds different on the VX.
