No, the corsa chassis is quite strong. Much stronger than the novas hence why the cors can take the engine so well.

IMagine that engine now, in a car half the size.

IM sure u never got that quote seeing as they dont do a 1.6 for the Corsa C

Oh, yeah, the above, 1.6 16v on Throttle Bodies with over 160bhp, ur looking at about £3000 minimum!!

No, they DO NOT do a 1.6 in the Corsa C. Listen to us

1.4 and 1.8 16v models.

£1500 what for Throttle bodies too lmfao.

£1500 would prob get u the engine and it fitted from a company. Thats it.

Yeah, understandable, but that wont include throttle bodies. A basic TB setup will cost £2k on its own.

Ims reu he is very clever, but thats still not the point. He wouldn't make any money at all.

An engine is going to cost £400 min.
TB £1600, + fitting, + setting up
Engine conversion, well, a company will prob charge around £400+, plus they will ahve to convert everythign from hydrolic to wire (as the 1600's are not designed that way).

£1500 fro a 1.6 conversion into a C at 160+bhp IS NOT going to happen
