c20xe?

[AveoSam]

Where can you find a c20xe engine? Anywhere in North American or would it have to be shipped from england? Im starting to like this engine better as a choice for swapping considering is has 150 bhp

Have you tried contacting GM and see if they could get you one?

No because that engine hasnt been produced in years so I doubt they would have one...plus if they did, they would overcharge me for it.....Im hoping that gsi turbo or precisionboost can tell me if they have them in canada

[aveosummit]

They might be able to help you to locate one....

[aveosummit]

eh nvm i got my answers on daewootech....this engine will be too much trobule for the few hp i would gain.....

Why not try and get an F22b Vtech to work...its a smaller sized engine (so it shouldn't have clearance problems), very buildable for lots of horse, and the Vtech controller would be a nice bonus.

Umm! that's a honda engine. it would be less trouble and money to get the c20xe in there.

also y would i want to drop in a honda engine that gives less hp than the C20xe....150 hp compared to the f22b vtec with 140 hp? u can get an easy 200+hp, its also one of the best 2.0L engines out there... this engine makes me drool....if only the good opel engines came to the us

I think the Honda engine suggestion was made because, there are already alot of aftermarket parts presently available.
