as the man just said The problem is that in Italy engine swapping is an illegal modification (and insurance can choose to not pay in case of accident), | |

quote: for the cost involved in putting a c14se into your car i'd say this option too :), plus you will then know that you have everything you need for the conversion | |

Why change the entire engine while half of it is the same? If I had to swap the engine I'd put a 1.6 at least. The problem is that in Italy engine swapping is an illegal modification (and insurance can choose to not pay in case of accident), so retaining the block = much less problems and hassle. | |

just put a whole c14se in the car, sure that'will take as much time? | |

I don't think the limit is the single point injection. The old carburetor version of the C14NZ that can be found in older Opel Corsa A (I don't know about Vauxhalls), the 14NV, had 75 hp (with a better camshaft than the C14NZ and same valve sizes), compared to the 60 hp of the spi C14NZ and the 82 hp of the mpi C14SE. The single point injection is much like an electronically controlled carburetor. | |

i doubt you will get any gains IF the head lines up, since you will still be running single point injection | |

My idea was to fit the top of the C14SE retaining my single point injection. However, guys at Migweb told me a while ago that the C14NZ inlet manifold doesn't fit on the SE head, so I'll need, as you're saying, a new ECU, new pump, the MAF sensor, etc. | |

Not sure on manifold fitting, but you'll most likely need a new ECU (from a Corsa SRi) and also a multi point injection fuel pump. | |
