Will be just the same as putting an XE in as the mounts are the same iirc.

Engines are cheaper, newer, quieter and look more at home in the engine bay than a redtop too but you wont have the lairy power at 4k rpm like to do with the redtop, i have also been toying with the idea of doing this.

Anyone know if the 2.2 eco would go in just as easy as the 2.0?

apparently though if you loose the inlet and exhaust mani's your up to redtop ish power? wouldnt take that as gospul though.
heard of people welding on flanges to suit the ecotec engine.
impo x20xev will be the next big transplanted engine to smaller models, ie corsa/nova etc
