Anyone know of any guides for fitment of a 1.6 GSi engine.

It seems straight forward but I'm not sure about the wiring.

Thanks

LOL my welder is fucked at the mo, the plastic piping that the wire goes through to lance is split and the wire starded to feed all over the shop! (gotta reweld the front Drive/Side mount.)

Erm one question, the heater matrix pipes, do they come from the two outlets on the back, one on metal waterpipe pointing directly backwards and one on the metal (silvery) block about 2-3 inch to right from it in pic?
(shown well in pic on www.corsa-novatuning.nl/uk/PartsA1600.htm at top)

Apart from that I will have it in by friday, oh and the big block will part from gearbox and come out from bay!

Should be able to find some,

If not I'll go to my mates field and rob some off the 6 or so cars he has on their bellys!

It looks really easy to fit then, not sure about winring yet though! Need to put engine in and try it!
