Hi All,

Just a quick question. What sort of 0-60 would you get if you put a C20LET (standard engine) into a corsa B, also what is the acceleration like when moving say from 30mph?

Cheers

0-60 could be anything from at least 5.5sec to 10secs.Depends if you can get the power down.

i timed mine with my trip computer stop watch it said 6.2secs which i think is a very real estimate.

If you want a decent 0-60 car forget an LET corsa. 50-130mph on the other hand

Take the Calibra/Cav figures. Same acceleration, similar top end, slighty quicker in gear.

Thats your answer.

I would admit if one gave me a good hiding but I havent seen many on the roads to be honest.
