Help With Engine Replacement - Need Advice

[𝐹𝓇𝒾𝓀𝓀𝒾𝑒𝒮𝓌𝒶𝑔]

Hi everyone,


I'm currently driving an Opel Corsa Lite 1.4i 2006 but I want to do something fun with it

I want to replace the current engine with an Opel Z16XEP Ecotec engine

I'm just not sure if the mounting points are the same on the engine as my vehicle or if it will fit on my gearbox

If anyone can maybe give me more insight if it will fit or not, I'll greatly appreciate it


Have a lovely day

It will fit, but not sure if its worth it. Boost the 1.4 rather.

your 1.4 engine can be converted to 1.6 and then 16v also without requiring a engine swop.
Also remember that a engine swop means that you have to take into account the cost of Police clearance and licensing in order to have the engine numbers changed.

For your original engine you require pistons, crank, cylinder head and timing gear assembly... you could even run the 1.4 head as its the same head but will increase the compression slightly cause the combustion chambers are smaller than the 1.6 head.

I guess the OP must tell us what he's expectations are
And his skill levels of course.
