I dont know much about vauxhalls too many different corsa's

I have a c16se engine which says Gsi on the inlet.
What year corsa 1.6s had the 8v because I see alot of people on the site with Gsi corsa's but I think there pretty much all 16v and whats the difference between the 1.6 gsi and the 1.6 sport.

Also the is a Nova Gte and a Nova Gsi ?

Early GSi's had the c16xe which was 107bhp or 109bhp depending on where you read your figures from.

The later gsi's and all the sports had the x16xe which was 104bhp

both were 1.6 16v

So this Nova gsi will be around the 100bhp mark.
What are people views on the c16se, still as reliable as the other 8v's
