straight in fella, just unbolt from the corsa and put in the nova engine bay and re-bolt

if you get the later x16xe you'll need the transponder key and ecu from th esame car

from what ive read the corsa shafts are too long so you would need to use the nova ones, though im not sure if you need the gte/gsi/td shafts or if you can use the other nova shafts

Use any nova shafts.
Corsa ones are no use.

Use nova mounts.

You'll also need swap the alternator pully and bottom engine pully to single "V" types. As the ribbed one will rub the chassis leg.

F13 and F15 boxes will fit straight on.
