get an f13 like my mine :L, 5th gets a bit winey tho. never poped a driveshaft yet either :D

If you want it to accelerate quicker then get an F16 cr, it will bolt on with no mods :thumbs:

I was debating a lightened flywheel as it happens.... the pot type that is on it is HEAVY plus i like the sound of an engine that is revved and returns to its idle in less than 10 seconds!
do they make that much of a difference?

if you want it to accelerate quicker then throw a lightened flywheel on it and do some striping of the crappy sound deadening

f16 and f20 are both big block gearboxes

Believe Astra MK2's have f16 and believe they are big block's

I have everything to put the F20 in.. i have taken it out of another corsa! Just trying to find a way to make it accelerate quicker without going down the route of big engine mods

I stand corrected! F15/5 CR

:thumbs: Just use the F20 mate with MK111 astra inner cv`s, GSI shafts and outer cv`s.:thumbs:

F16 is a bigblock gearbox and not found in a corsa gsi :o :lol:

hi all.

I have heard that it is possible to fit the "small block" F16 gearbox from the Gsi to the C20XE block.

Obviously i will lose top end but there is no point in having anything that goes faster than 70mph in the UK(!)

I want to build the car to accelerate!

The small amount of information i have managed to find related to putting the flywheel off the Gsi on to the C20XE engine.

can anyone who has put an F16 corsa Gsi box on a C20XE tell me what (if anything) you had to do to make it work?

I have the F20 that came with the C20XE still so i can rape any parts required.

cheers
