Much better doing a XE/LET, V6 is only good for the grunt

IIRC, for the V6, you need to make your own mounts, as no pre made kits are available yet. Need to make your own manifolds etc, all very expensive, and still quite slow compared to a XE/LET.

Probably more than a V6 conversion as most LET engine's will need a rebuild once you have found one IMO. So best off sticking to just an XE mate.

Chris Astley does V6 corsa mounts iirc.

The exhaust downpipe needs quite a bit of modding too.
