I have a Corsa 1.4 Sport and the time has finally come to change the engine. Im planning on buying an C20XE car (been phoning this guy about a cali but his fones off!) then taking the engine from it.

Am I right in thinking i can also use the brakes, gearbox and clutch from an XE cav/cali/astra?

Also what sort of price is the fitting kit and where would I be best to buy it from?

Thanks for any help

Worth changing the cambelt, cambelt rollers and waterpump before it goes in too.
