X14XE and X16XEL share the same head and cams

fitment wise the heads are the same as the C16XE and X16XE.

Not seen an X14XEL, do they exist?

EPC says no X14XEL exists...a C14SEL does but that is a multi point injected 8 valve.

L on an engine code means low output...


(or supercharged. Well done GM on using the same letter for two completely different reasons :roll: )

and the E in engine code lingo stands for multi point injection

Nah, the only X14 fitted to the 'F' was the X14XE, EPC does not list an X14XEL for any Astra or Corsa in any country, so you could presume they don't exist.

There is no X14XEL, just x14xe
There is a X16XEL, fitted to mk3 astras and vectra's iirc.
