I did 1650, nothing about 1800. The C20xe can only be taken to 2.1 as then the walls between the cylinders are very thin. | |

i know what you are getting at miles, and i meant the cylinders, not the head oops. But you would need a very good mechanic to do it properly. 400cc increase is pretty big. On the 20XE's, isnt 2.1 the largest you can bore to? whats the reason for that? | |

I know it wont make the head brittle as boring the block has nothing to do with the head. | |

yes it might be the same block miles, but how do you know that the boreing process wont make the head brittle and as soon as its given some right foot, its gonna crack?? | |

You can bore the 1.4 16v out to 1650 the same as the 1.6's. Its the same block on the 1.4/1.6's but with a different bore. The parts are going to cost more than £400. | |

You will not be able to bore it out that much. POssibly to a 1.5, but 1.8 :lol: And the guy thinks he's a pro. | |

i doubt you can bore out a 1.4 to a 1.8, don't know much about corsa c's but on a corsa b 1.6 you can only bore it out to a 1.7!! | |
