Hi guys,
I bought an old 1997 Vauxhall Corsa with a blown head gasket for £150 off Autotrader about a week ago... just to fiddle around with.
I'm willing to delve into the unknown with an engine transplant... and I was thinking about swapping the 8V 1.2 4IL with a 2.5L 24V V6 from a Mondeo Ghia X.
Has anybody done anything like this or have any advice? It might seem a big ambitious engine swap but this is just a learning curve for me and I need to gauge how do-able it really is! Both engines have a manual FWD Transaxle so I can't see there being too much of a problem there. Thanks.
