you could drop a c20xe in it like a lot of people do or you could put a c16xe in it from a corsa gsi....or you could be a bit different and put a x20xev in it like im doing

3.1td engine out a isuzu trooper or a 2.2/2.8td out a frontera u know it makes sence

go for the 1.8 lump from a vectra or similar..my mate did it and was quick as fook lol

if its the diesel then it will be, as they weight about 9400 tones
diesels are always heavy!

but i know what you mean would be diffrent
be even diffrenter and fit a 1.8t 20v lump from a golf gti should be good for 200hp

[roperstun]

or an old sarb turbo engine sum1's dun it on mig

[CorsaTD]

this could be a good project... but i think its a bit to hardcore for me!
