I've never tried to buy a V6 engine, but I dont imagin they are all that expensive from scrappies normally.

Hows it for a corsa? Has it been in one before?

Surely you cant use cav injection? Unless you mean v6 cav injection?

6 Speed box? Is that the F28 then? I didn't think they would fit? Dont they have F25's?

U2U "The Guru"
He has a 2.0 16v but his brother works for MMV Performance up here and did a 3.0 V6 conversion on his Corsa.
I was watching it drive round the local Retail Park last night and the sound is amazing :!:thumbs:

just thought, i'll need new drive shafts, bigger brakes and like mase5 said, a different suspension setup, looks costly but might end up paying the same as i would for a 2ltr conversion. does anyone know of anyone with a 3ltr v6 engine conversion?

it will be a heavy engine, but will pack some serious punch on the straights, will need a good suspension setup for the twistys though i expect. Go for it !!!!
