the c16xe is considered the better engine out the early gsi, both good engines tho and not much to pic kbetween them when u think that a x16xe will have low milage in mpost cases

Thanks guys

I can't think of anywhere that I can get one and ALL the kit from - I'd kill for one too, but don't know enough to be confident to get one myself.

Hi Greasemonkey,

I have a 1.2 16v in a 1999 Corsa with imobiliser.

Sourcing the engine is definitely the hardest bit.

I'm in West Leicestershire out near Market Bosworth. I have a double garage which we could work in, but I know nothing about engines myself!

I'd happily pay you £400 to do it; the only reservation I have is the sheer scale of the job and the potential for it all to go wrong and leave me with a broken car - but the bigger the risk, the bigger the reward I guess

Now where can I get a 1.6 16v low milage engine from? Didn'y two people on here say there selling theirs soon? what did I hear about 130BHP?
