dunno why i just thought of this.... but

Are Tigra's as easy to pop a c20 in? Can corsa mount kits etc be used for the conversion?

to the best of my knowledge a tigra uses the same chasis as a corsa and the engine bay is identical.

they use the x14XE and x16XE that would be found in the corsa B.

So i'd imagine it would be the same as doing a corsa comversion.

apparantly need different mounts as they sit higher in the bay and you can't close the bonnet

It did indeed! Works really well. It's a tight as fcuk fit but it's very plesant!!

Mine's still for sale btw!

Edit: No different mounts needed, Lee's kit works perfect.

Non of those top pics are turbo'd!

What engine is that mounted the wrong way in the Tigra? The rocker cover looks a bit like a cossie one but its n/a. What a crap/odd exhaust manifold design! Spose you cant get it as smooth with the engine like that.....
