how hard would it be to fit a 1.2 16v twinport engine into a corsa b

sorry about the corsa questions guys:)

IIRC Corsa Cs have multiplex wiring looms. ie one wire does more than one job, making an engine transplant into a B very difficult. Not sure how easy it would be to adapt the B loom to the C engine, and would be stupidly hard to make the C loom fit the B.

yes ive fitted a corsa b engine into a corsa c before, It was a 1lt 12v from wht i can remember. Was just an engine though all the wiring stayed with the car. The ones in the C an B are nigh on the same anyway engine wise.

Some corsa B's came with 1.2 16v's too...
If you really want one for some reason

Twinport engines are different.
IE early corsa c is z10/12xe
late corsa c is z10/12xeP.
Wiring looms/inlet manifolds are different on xep engines. z engines ie z12xe is electronic throttle, x engines, ie x12xe is throttle cable.
