yup. I think they match to the F13 gearboxes a lot easier than the F10's though.

The corsa's use an F15 don't they?

That will fit in aswell.

so, if you have a 1.4sr/sri can you just slap 1.4 16v head on and use corsa managment or is it more complicated than that?

yeah the pullys would need mounting on the side of the block for a start. it all gets a bit complicated

the idlers attach to the head

u'd need to tinker with the tensioner and fit the crank position sensor but thats about it

You also need to use Nova shafts as Corsa ones are ever so slightly longer.
