If anyone has a pic of a 3.0 or 3.2 in a corsa I'd love to see it. Are there many 4x4 corsa's knocking around? I've seen one but it was twin let engined I was thinking f28 and custom shafts. I'd love to see underneath one if they're about

It will look exactly the same as a 2.5 in a Corsa. You use the 3.0/3.2 bottom end and the C25XE inlet etc.

So not really as easy then.

Its only easy to do the rear manifold if you know what you are doing. Its not a straight forward cut and weld job.
