the engine is based largely on the vaux one iirc, but like most manufacurers they will have made their own little changes...

The 8valves are the same, inlets sometime differ tho. The 16valves have the same bottom ends and gearboxes but the heads arent the same as vauxs.

has been done in south africa with the 1.6 16v engines, the problem with them is the inlet and the daewoo ones have a shorter tract and are less resrtictive, not sure whats required to fit though
