1.0 12v > 1.4 16v

Post by Cruising Corsa »

hey there, my corsa is currently a 1.0 12v, but soon to be putting in a 1.4 16v lump :)

not asking for opinions, but what i am asking for is a little help...

could someone be so kind and make a list of everything that is needed, i.e : engine, gearbox, ecu, wiring loom etc etc...

i think i need a new front left engine mount, but the other ones should fit?

will my current driveshafts fit the 1.4 16v gearbox?

im obviously not clued up on this, but all help appreciated, thanks!

1.0 12v is hard 2 to wire the loom in then 1.2 12v from what i have heard. if i was you i get a 1.6 16v engine and put that in better engine. or if u can get insurance get a red top.
