wonder why they just didn't stick it on the same was as vauxhall, unless you get more room on that side due to box etc?

No, it's totally different, it's not actually related to the C20XE, but the mounts MIGHT be the same, that's what we need to find out really.

That looks promising, I reckon that's similar to a C20XE bolt pattern?

They all have steel rods and cranks as standard, and are apparently capable of 400bhp with no internal changes


are any of the internals interchangable with xe's/let's?

Not as far as I know, as they're not really a GM engine.
