was wondering if anyone could shine a bit of light on this for me, will the 1.2 16v engine from a corsa c (fuel injected) fit into my 1.2 16v corsa b? (carburetor) like will the looms fit to my car? nd shizz like that,

Why? Cause I'm gona stick the corsa c engine in my corsa b. Well was thinking about doing it. Cause my engine is about to kick the bucket. got a 1.2 engine out of a c for free. Just had con rods broke. Already found out that it's a big job to change looms etc. But can use the head of it so all's sweet,

you have a carb on your corsa? Did you fit that yourself or is it a single point injection?

Just the original single point injection, that's why I was asking if it was possible to fit the corsa c engine which has a fuel rail and multi point injection. But seems to be a hassle to wire up the electronic throttle,

Can't you just fit the inlet manifold from your engine? I can't see there being much of a difference, I think they're both the same Suzuki based engine.

Turns out there is no difference. My inlet manifold fitted right on. Dont know why i didnt think of that in the first place. Cheers for that btw. Any idea where I can get con rods that won't cost an arm and a leg?
