	never seen it done but i have wondered about it myself.
csweatherston	posted on 4th Sep 06 at 12:41
	right...i know the front sub frame and running gear is the same as a fwd cavalier....heres the engine (from a cde), just wonder if anyones over fitted one to a corsa.... it produces roughly 230hp, and has a coscast head.... [Edited on 04-09-2006 by csweatherston]

	i thought it was a 2.3, but i could be mistaken...... yes, inline 4cylinder double overhead cam [Edited on 04-09-2006 by csweatherston]

	So what is it? An inline 2.5??
csweatherston	posted on 4th Sep 06 at 12:20
	woh, calm your ass down cybermonkey..... i said, " NO, Not the V6"..... pk, take the 2ltr turbo for example, from a erm......95 9000se??..... it has the same lower subframe as a c20xe cavvy.....and the engine looks pretty much the same, whilst producing more power than the LET. READ THE THREAD PROPERLY

	there was never a 2.5 Turbo engine in a Saab. the first gen Saabs had 2.0 Turbo's, and the Aero had a 2.3. the new Saab 95 uses a mixture off 2.0 and 2.3 turbocharged engines with a max of 260bhp. the 2.8 V6 Turbo now being offered in the 95 and 93 is an Alloytec 60degree V6 and will not simply fit in a Corsa without massive modifications. my dads Commodore has the 3.6 version of this engine and it fills the entire engine bay. whats funny is that Saab have strapped a turbo to this engine and it only produces 260bhp, my dads is N/A and produces the same figure with only 0.8litres more capacity. so to answer your question, no a V6 Turbo will not fit your car :lol:

	not the v6......looks like an xe, with a different rocker cover...... either a 2.3 turbo, or 2.5 turbo.... the thermotwats in the same place...im all but sure its the same block :S [Edited on 04-09-2006 by csweatherston]

	the 2.5v6 they use is basically an x25xe, so yes it should fit, although getting good cooling will be a different matter all together...

	as a saab 9000 has the same front subframe as a cavvalier, will the engine fit in my corsa???. anyone done this b4?? [Edited on 04-09-2006 by csweatherston]
