It's more often than not far more cost effective to sell your existing car and buy one that's already converted, unless you have some sort of emotional attachment to your existing Corsa?

You will need a full engine and gearbox package with loom, AFM, manifolds etc.
The C20XE throttle cable.
An MPI fuel pump if your is an SPI.
The fuel line connectors if yours isn't a 12/16v at present.
The mount kit (depends on the shell you have as to which one you need)
Driveshafts.
Modified linkage depending on the rear spacer with the mount kit.
Adaptor plate to get rid of the SFi box aqs it saves hacking the bulkhead.
PAS pump/plate if you have PAS and wish to retain it.
A flexi pipe welded on to adapt the manifold to your system.
Other things are prudent as well whilst you are doing the conversion for reliabities sake; general service parts - cambelt, rollers, plugs, dizzy (unless dizzless), oil etc. It is also wise to upgrade your brakes, the ATE calipers and 256mm discs are cheap and will suffice, also upgrade the suspension as you will have more weight in the front and will be driving it harder. If you go with big block outers you will need new wheels bearings pressing in as well.
I have probably missed something but that's the general gist of it! 
Good luck!
