Am I right in saying thats an E16SE engine as it has no Dispak? if thats true then it cant be a 1992 engine as he states, also its in a corsa :wtf:

[alan b]

afaik early 92 engines were e16se's? c16se engined nova's were very scarce. and ya that is an e16se!

Looks like an E16SE to me too. Only very late GSI's had C16SE's.

And yes it is in a corsa, but look at the scratch on the o/s chassis leg, looks like it's been fitted by Mr. Bodgeit!

looks like an sri engine with gsi managment to me but i may be wrong.

^ thats basically what a C16 engine is lol but bigger CC's then a Corsa SRi

[mowgli]

it is from a car breaker, they can't even get their radios tuned correctly, so don't expect the complete truth

I thought c16s had that rocker cover?

[alan b]

^^ true but im thinking that whoever put it into a corsa didnt change the v5, and didnt want it sayiong 1.6 injection across it? or maybe they just changed! they the same design only the c16 is plastic. and e16 is metal

look at the wiring!

how many random bits of blue electrical tape can you count!

[alan b]

lol 27? no 28?

[Riggy]

lol the engine is in perfect condition , we have no keys so we cant test it lol

nobbers

[Mazz]

Looks a right mess tbh, the state of the wiring and the hose's are aweful!

[Stoo]

[sr jack]
