I think you'd need to use Nova shafts as the Corsa ones are longer, but everything else goes in easily.

I was looking to do this
Didnt really look into it enough to get details but this thread could be usefull.
What mounts would you use? I'm guessing it's been done before?

there was a baby blue nova with an x14xe engine in total vauxhall a while ago. It looked really tidy but im sure it said something about having something done to the ecu to bypass the imobilizer. That was the only hard part iirc

yep, if you've got the chip and transponder, just wire that in, and it's fine..
if you haven't then you need the ecu modded so it works etc
