ok.. anybody want ?400 to supply and fit a 1.6 16v (early GSi)??

or, what is involved...

what we know so far.. its a straight swap with only 6 wires (rav, live feed, nuteral, starter, temp?)

what parts do i need from the corsa?
block, loom, coil, ecu...?

any guides?

Its not a hard swap at all and you should have a go yourself, you need...

Engine, Loom, Uncoded ECU, Corsa GSi Top Rad Hose, Corsa throttle cable, GSi fuel tank and pump.

Thats pretty much it as you can run it on a Nova Gearbox if you want to (i wouldnt personally as the F15's are a good box).

It all depends on what model your car is too, if you have a GTE/GSi then it is slightly easier as you dont have to mess with the fuel side of things (i know this isnt essential but it certainly makes it run better).
