Would it not cost more though as the C16SE has more power standard.How much £££ we looking at?

your be better of tuning the 1.4 16v, your be able to get same bhp without doin engine change

Anyone else got any more info on this?I want to try and know everything before i make my mind up.

Thanks alot.

well compared to my 1.4 8v it felt a hell of alot quicker was alot of fun in the wet :lol:

Mines a 1.4 16V So will it be diffrent?Did it drive well and was it fast for what it was etc?

Thanks
Craig

i put a c16se in my old 8 v sri and onli took me 3 hours used the same wiring loom lol was fun little car untill it died :thumbs:

Are they an easy engine to put in?(Straight Swop?)or Do you need to buy Conversion kit or make bits etc?

Thanks for all your help!

Craig

its got lots of head work stage 3 twin 40s rebore all sorts its 1 of the fastest 1.6 8 valves about it gives 2.0 a good run 4 there money but you wood be cheeper to redtop the corsa if u ask me

c16se had a cat and dis-pac
e16se had a dizzy set up iirc

Whats he had done to get that much power?And also are they hard to fit?(Whats needed,or is it just a straight swop?)
