Just looking for some advice on what i will need to upgrade / what i will need for the conversion.
I'm thinking of buying a 1.6 8v astra gls and using that engine, box, loom , ecu , brakes and fuel pump
is there anything else i would need ? or something that i cant use from the astra

I've searched online but havent found much information.

in regard to my under investigation, me and jamxe are sorting this via u2u and has recieved half of the money already so please no silly comments needed.

i have the same conversion, 1.6 engine from a gls (c16se 100bhp) its the excact same engine as the nova gsi later coil pack type except the exhaust manifold as the novas have a 4 branch, what you have put is what you need .. can all be taken from the astra, nice easy conversion
