Is this the right amount of loom I need to keep from the Saab or will I need more? Saab will be getting scrapped before I start work on the Corsa so don't want to get rid without having everything I need.

Cheers. Cant get much info from other forums. Found a guy in Uk that sells loom adapters, Corsa conversion mount and reflashes Ecu so that will hopefully make this a bit easier.

That's the hard part
All the rest other than the engine mount is easy

Yeah thats it. I found out that I should be able to use the diesel f23 gearbox but the ratios are really bad. It might have to do until I can find/afford an f20 or proper f23.

Yeah thats the plan but finding 1 will be tricky where I am. So a cheap diesel box might have to do just to get it rolling [emoji14] is the f23 in all turbo astras?

Lifted out with a tow strap and scaffolding pole. Was a bit heavier than I expected.

Got my Ecu back with imobiliser delete and stage 2 remap, and got a custom engine mount.

Hoping to collect an f20 this weekend. Can I use my standard 1.2 Corsa driveshafts and change the inner CV's or is that a stupid question?
