I'm planning on having a X20XEV from a 1998+ vectra/astra fitted at the end of May and have a few Q's :
1. Will the OBDII plug need to be fitted to the car & will it work?
2. Will I need the clocks from the donor car?
3. Will my radiator suffice?
Any help will be gratefully accepted

The bigger 1.4 and up rad will be fine.
the colcks form the corsa will be fine, depending on speedo, although a veccy clocks conv might be original
no idea about the OBD2 plug, might want to speak kev abotu it
You'll also need the immboilser ecu and key and so on for it to run.

It's the same conv as any biglock engine swap.
It's the wiring that is different though, so don't ask me, can't hit wiring with hammers
If you want to come have a look I'll be doing Tim's in a few weeks time, you cna pop down and I can run you through it, and maybe help with yours if you need it too. give me a bell if you need to.
