Ok I have a LPG astra van that has now done 220k... The engine is about finished.... Using huge amounts of oil!

So time for an engine swap...

It Has a X16se pic- http://astra.autokacik.pl/technika/napraw/egrp1.jpg

But this has come up on ebay...
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/vauxhall-astra...6.c0.m14.l1318

Diffrence that I can spot is that the coil pack looks diffrent and its SPI.

But would the block be the same? Then put my coilpack and MPI injection on?

Many Thanks In Advance!

You might need to use your head too, vauxhall have an annoying habbit of swapping port shapes round on their small block engines for some reason.
