I got a 4-2-1 manifold off a astra (Z18XE) with exactly same block, head and sump as my corsa (Z18XE) but theres no way the manifolds going to fit on the corsa as it wont got flush onto the head as the pipes keep hitting the sump!
I was in rain 2 hours yesterday, cars now stuck outside on axle stands :sick:

Just remember to drain the engine oil before you undo the sump bolts or it will be dripping out everywhere
I think its quite a simple job about 15 bolts
