Basically wanting to know if I wanted to do an engine conversion and wanted to convert to a 1.6 16v, what do I need to ask for?

Engine, gearbox, mounts, loom and ecu, shafts and hubs is what comes to mind.
I know about brakes but I might aswell go for the 2.0 brakes whilst Im at it.

Anything Im missing?
1.6 would be going into a 1.0 12v by the way(yes I know it would be easier to buy a 1.6 corsa :lol

(Did try search but could only find info on 2.0 conversions.)

Think the pump and fuel lines would be needed from the X16 engine as its a multi point injection unlike the single point injection in the 1.0LT

Would reccommend suspension if not already done so, and maybe exhaust system, not 100% on that one though.

Engine, gearbox mounts, loom, ecu, transponder, brakes, exhaust, suspension (if already not lowered) fuel pump (I think)

I'll have a X16 for sale in a few weeks

engine, box, mount's, loom & ecu is all you need..

orignal drive shafts will work, so no need to change hub's..

12v is mpi, so has the correct fuel pump and lines

will also need a exhaust and cat to match engine, as 1.0 stuff is different and wont work
