Ah right what mounts should I use then? The 16v mounts I've got will not work as they are body type 2 mounts and I've got a body type 1 shell..

you have a few options mate get ya mits on the early gsi mounts they are type 1 iirc

also there isnt much difference between the body types and may be able to drill a few addidtional holes to fit them (dont not hold me to that mate )

All small block mounts should be the same, you will have type 1/2 shells but can keep the mounts u got unless you want to keep PAS

Off the link : Small block engine conversions (1.0, 1.2, 1.4, 1.6)

A small block engine will fit into your Corsa using your existing engines mounts. Is that correct? So the c16xe engine with no epas pump should bolt straight in?
