I already found out that:
C18XE(L)
X18XE
are Big block
and that:
X18XE1
Z18XE(L)
are small block

Why do I want to know this?
I've got a Dbilas throttlebodykit, camshafts, supersprintmanifold on my 16xe, sow I donot want to throw that away.

That's why I want to use a 1800 block to connect to my 1600 head.

actually yes.... the black is a small block engine, the z18xe is the big block (or is it the other way round...) would think you may need to fabricate some mounts up.....

Is it possible to put an X16XE head on a X18XE1 block?
And what do I need to adapt to fit in a Corsa B GSi :boggle:
