Say i already bought the engine, how much will i be looking at to swap them over?

Just a ruff esitmate is fine, not sure if its £100 or £1000 job thats all.

400ish, depends where you go and what kind of job you want doing. plus it obviously going to be alot more if you want a 3 litre in the front of a saxo or something

Depends what you are having doing. You have a corsa right, im guessing either a 2.0 or 2.0 turbo lump. Probabley cost alot i think :)

Depends on if its the same engine. If you want a VTS lump fitted, I'd guess at 750quid. If its a standard replacement then about 300 notes should cover it.

3k? Are you on crack. That would be for a non PSA engine, eg a type R lump where lots of fabricating is needed

i was thinking if he didnt have the engine, and it wasnt a standard replcement e.g bigger engine, and lots of work doing.

I can't comment on this but thanks for the heads up on the price. Next year, around December, going for a VTR/VTS conversion :D

It was going to be a corsa 2.0 engine in a corsa 1.2 bay. My friend is thinking about doing it.

Get a Calibra Turbo engine in there. Or a redtop. Slots straight in!
