just got a corsa c 1.2 2001 plate for £100 reason being the engine was blown and hauled out guy was going to do a conversion but didnt have the time to. so i got it in the hope i could bang in another engine and have a project or run around,
bodys mint interior is also mint its just an engine needed.
question is....... ive got a x16xel mk4 astra 1.6 16vsxi engine sitting here with only 54,000 on the clock came out of a v reg astra.
rather than blowing £200 + on another engine thought id give yous a bash see what yous would reckon about sticking the astra engine into the corsa?
whats your oppinions? i am not putting the 1.6 16v sxi engine into the corsa for power or speed, but just as its here..
anyone help or give me advice on fitting the engine to the corsa? wiring whats needed etc know of someone with a donor astra too if anythings needed

As Taylor says, buy a 1.8 or just stick a 1.2 what should be in. Don't start sticking an older engine in.
