At the moment i have a corsa 1.2 8v but am thinking of an engine conversion for maybe a 1.4 sport or a gsi, and was wondering whats best to do, also price and what to do insurance wise, many thanks

If the car is standard, you'd be better off buying a sport/gsi than swapping the engines.

it will cost you more in the long run to fit a 1.4 or 1.6 engine from a sport/gsi than it would to buy a sport/gsi, swap the wheels & such over, then sell the old car...
