Whats the difference between 1.2/1.4 8v (Corsa B) and 1.6 8v (Astra F) flywheels? Is an Astra F 2.0l flywheel different again?

They are meant for different engines? 
Honestly though, i coulndt tell you.
Why would you need to know that? If you have a 1.2/1.4 there is no need to be fucking about with flywheels unless yours is broken

Your clutch and flywheel are connected to the engine, not the box.
Both small blocks so the f13 bellhousing shoudl fit over fine. I see no reason to be messing with flywheels if the 16se has the heavy duty clutch allready attatched

The flywheel will be the same size no all small block engines, because the starter motors are in the same postion. As long as the clutch is matched to the flywhell you should be fine.

Its not. I couldnt get one to suit. The flywheel is for a 1.2/1.4 8v and the clutch is for a 1.6 8v. The clutch is said to be 10mm larger in diameter, but im not sure if the recess in the flywheel is big enough

Well you need a 1.2/1.4 8v clutch to go with the flywheel.
