They have a different casting to the bell housing though, I think theres 4 different f23s
edit: didnt notice this had been covered earlier in the thread

Same for the M32 then, M32 on the Corsa is different to the M32 on the diesels and the Astra VXR.

No mate no chance.
Guy in Sheffield had a GT3076R bolted to side of it, fully forged bottom end etc, and upped boost to 1.9bar for 500 and the block cracked.
