youve just said the engine u want

there is only 1 C20XE and they are all te same to install

best not getting one from an ABS model tho, since they fucked about with some of the water hoses on them

www.valvers.com has a guide

just follow that and u should be fine

Great in a straight line, crap round corners. I'm using a 1.6 16v on throttle bodies = 160BHP acording to SPD. Light engine and still handles like the GTE used too. Guess we'll find out next winter when we swap it over.
