the corsa 1.0i is slow anyway i used to struggle with mine going up any sort of steep hills.
best thing you can do is ligthten it
and you dont have to re-register your car just tell the DVLA that you have put a new engine in it, and tell them the engine serial number

Are there any other problems with it?
Like a jerking sensation when pushing down on the accelerator or something else?

Whats your engine speed like when your going up a hill? does the rpm drop with your speed or does your speed drop but rpm stay the same/go higher?

the steeper the hill be slower the car its like ill go up it in 3rd at 30mph and it soon changes speed and have to change gear coz the rpm drops too
