Right i know this has been asked thousands of time but what is needed to fit a C20XE and F20 into a Corsa B ?

Engine/Gearbox mounts
Driveshafts
Hubs
Power Cap

What else is needed/needs done for it to fit ? Also prices, where can i buy these parts, ive looked at M-Techs kit prices are around £600 ?

apparently an ecotec pipe is better than a powercap.

Don't bother, theres plenty of the proper 2.0 corsas vaux made coming available now, with all the proper bits on, rather than the converted ones.

Usually a bit dearer but worth it.

Think ed's a bit annoyed as he went to the trouble of doing that guide thing and it's overlooked... maybe it should be highlighted

Have you any suggestions as how to make the thread better, I was considering doing a full tutorial, but the length of the production was far to long... What would you like to see in that post... I am more than willing to update it to make it more usefull... p.s. I am not having a go, u2u me with anything you need to know (this applies with anyone, I am willing to answer any questions)
