i reckon it'd go in just as easy as the X25XE.

i doubt it. the engine is actually made here in australia. its called an Alloytec engine and trust me, it aint gonna fit without massive bay mods. its a hell of a lot bigger than a 25XE.
this is the 3.6 with 270bhp, my dads SVZ has this engine

Police spec might be more uprated to keep up with police chases

That engine would need massive mods to go in any retro fit vectra b astra g etc
the ecu is on canbus and has ecu's all over from the engine ecu to the cim on the steering colum all the way back to the rear electrical centre ecu
I would be well impressed if someone got all that done up and running
