How much would it cost me to buy a 1.6 corsa sport engine and get it fitted to replace a 1.0 litre engine.

Less than £1k

Engine loom and box will be about £500/£600, then pay someone to fit it, and you would need to upgrade the breaks too....I recon about £1500ish....mine cost £1600 and that was just for a replacement GSi engine!
