Well when Lee drives it I can't see it doing sub 7 secs....unless he's had a big dump before hand!
L100 didn't have a big install, a full interior and the weight of the 2.0 16v. Well it did when it was Floppy's not Lee/Dan/Davy's/whatever but you know what I mean.

Aye, But when Bracey had the coversion, he never had an install either. Just front n rear seats. Then he had them re-trimed and asemi decent ICE system.
And it was the first Corsa i know of to have rear disks

I think thats a bit over optimistic dont u seeing as Luckys was 250bhp and only done it in 4.97.
Andy H has 214bhp, stripped out and only hit it in 6.09 (5 this year though im sure )
Fully stripped out corsa with a 2.0litre, u'd be looking at a low 6 second, if u got off the line well.

does the 2.0L conversions do 60 in 2nd gear

Not 100% sure on that one. I think they may do on the F20 gb, but im not quite sure. I know they rev to 7000rpm. Or the Astra GTE i drove did anyway

yeah but reving to that engine speed would put you out of your pwoer band so your better for 1/4 mile to not bother with a quick 60mph as your going further on. good example of this was PaulEY's saxo on the corsa-saxo day

f20 in a corsa, will read roughly 65 on the speedo. f16 will read 61 .
mine has filter exhaust, f20 box and has done a 0-60 6.60, now got f16 and boost valve and head work, so i need to do some times again, at the shoot out that will be coming up soon
