2.0 8v needs a C20LET fitting kit, 1.6 8v should go in more or less straight away.

People on Mig don't know shit then. Big block engines & big block gear boxes do not fit straight into Corsa engine bays....

no you dont... although i would just steer away from doing an 8v conversion theres so much more available and much more help around for the c20xe engine...
