But this is based on the corsa C with the Z18XE engine so it will slightly differ to a corsa B with a X18XE1 in


The Corsa C weighs like two B's


corsa c is about 100kg's more than a corsa b so it doesnt weight like 2 b's at all.

What would be a rough cost all in for an X18XE1 conversion??For parts and fitting etc??
TBH its something i would consider maybe 1 day if its as straight forward and easy as made out.Id give it a bash myself.
