£500 will give you all the bits from the engine I would imagine.

corsa-crazy: can't say you'll get a full working XE for that, might get a complete banger if you're unlucky.

there ent a set price as fitting kits vary alot like u need power steering mount if u got it = 70 odd quid extra

if ur car has pas/16v etc u need extra bodywork mount which could be same as above im unsure

generally u get and engine for 500 quid with gearbox and loom etc
fitting kit im gonna say cost me about 600 quid
labour depending on whats done but generally just fittin it is 500 quid roughly might have changed

and then u should have oil/oil filter/coolant/plugs/leads maybe/fuel filter and deffo cambelt and tensioners, and if u got early xe get dizzy cap replaced, and if engine leaks do sump gasket

all down to whats done

if you have the chassis that isnt 16v and no PAS, mounts u get get for bout 50 quid, powercap with ecotec pipe bout 20, can get current hubs machined for about 25ish i think, then need new bearings not sure bout cost on them, obv u need engine, box, loom etc on top of that, also if you dont want to arse about with the gearlinkage problem, get a mtech short shift linkage, ive done all the above and am best part way through a conversion and have run into no probs yet.
