 | Is there any in the northeast that specializes in engine conversions?
 
 i currently own a 1.2 8v B and im looking for more power now and would like a 1.6 16v fitted but i cannot seem to find anywhere in the NE that does this.
 
 any tips or recommendations are welcome

 | dont think it will fit, wrong type chassis leg on your car, the 8v corsas have an external mount on the chassis leg, the 16v have an internal one, unless yours unbolts(some later 1.2 and 1.4 8v's do IIRC, know earlier ones dont)
