astra estate 1.6
Astra Mk 4 1.6 16v/1.8 16v (5 stud) to Z20LET - from £6645

Left side should be my engine (X16XEL)
Above is a price for a conversion from courtenay sport. i looked on ebay for the Z20LET engine and its like £500. obviously its not just a simple fit so what parts now would i need to make this work??
Its just an idea so i know what i can, and can not do with the engine as conversions seem simpler for big power gains then mods on the engine.
 
You'd need an ECU, wiring loom, engine mounts - not sure if the gearboxes are a good fit between these engines, the ratio's will almost certainly be out.
 
ah kool well the one i saw has all this included in the price!:
Engine
Gearbox
Engine Loom
Engine Bay Loom
Dash Loom
VXR Turbo
ECU Chip and Transponder
Drive shafts
Front Hubs
Intercooler
Engine Mounts
