The term Redtop refers to some higher powered Vauxhall engines fitted to Cavaliers, Astras etc which have red rocker covers/engine covers.
I'd post a pic for you but I can't be arsed so Google it.
A lot of Corsa boys like taking 2.0 Turbo Redtops out of these larger Vauxhalls and sticking them in their smaller lighter cars which in turn makes them a hell of a lot faster!!
re. your mate. He's full of shit and deserves to be told so.

I'll reply in a mature manner but anyways it means sticking one of these into a Corsa..

They orginally come out of a 2.0l Vauxhall Cavalier.

Theres no actual reason why you couldn't fit one to a saxo..... it would just take alot of custom work. If you can get it in the front of a mini then why the fuck not!?? You never know his mate might be a realy good fabricator its just that no one knows about it? look at that evo engined saxo thats just appeared in projects
