What has size got to do with it.
a 1.8 can be fitted. or there is these..
2.0 16v 150bhp
2.0 turbo, 200bhp(ish)
or the V6 which are around 200bhp as well.

3.0 V6 has been done a few times, JR has an LC engine in but he can't fit enough cooling in so it overheats.

1.8's go straight in, speak to DaveyLC

As swill says, its GOT to be the XE1 variant, the XE variant of the 1.8 is a big block engine and that requires the same mounts and shafts as the 2.0 XE so you might as well go for the 2.0 if you are going to go through all the agro.

He meant that you ruined the joke, of trying to get someone to buy the story of a LC engine in a corsa.

I don't really care, if anyone calls me a boring fuck for no obvious reason I'm obviously going to take offence.

Could've been worded better is all.
