Anyone know anything about them?

Hi Apples

Not an engine you will find any info on, on this forum.

That engine wasn't used in any cars this forum is mainly about.
Although the engine was built by opel/gm you will probably find more info on an isuzu or rodeo forum.

My understanding is, that these engines (along with the C24SE from the Rodeo) share a similar gearbox bolt pattern to the Z20LEx turbo engines. Honestly, if you're gonna go turbo, I'd be at least starting with an engine that's already boosted from factory. Saab B204/B234 (2.0 and 2.3) turbo engines also use the same bolt pattern, and are really strong and tuneable engines also.

Hi Chris, I will take a look at the Saab B204/B234 engines.

Hi Chris, I will take a look at the Saab B204/B234 engines.

If you're going to go with the Saab engine, I suggest checking out the Saabworx group on Facebook. They're usually dropping them into all things Opel/Vauxhall, BMW, Ford Sierras, Escorts, etc. Occasionally some even keep them in a Saab. But seriously, these guys usually know their stuff when it comes to conversions with these engines.
