1.2 8v to a 1.4 16v

Post by dandadan »

Alright peeps
Hoping someone can shed some light for me.

My younger bro has a 1995 1.2 8v corsa & wants to put my 1.4 16v in from my 1995 corsa. Its the x14xe engine.

How hard is it to swap?
My engine is still in the car so everything is ther but will he need anything different?

Any help would be greatful but please dont say he should put a 1.6 or 2.0 in lol
Drive it like you stole it

Loom is diferent i think , mounts will be diff but you can cut them out of your 1.4, theres somthing else but cant remember overall it will be a hard enough conversion
If it doesn't fit,
force it,
If it breaks,
It needed replacing anyway :thumbs:
