Would be a major project to fit, especially as automatic. Have you got $1500-$2500 to spare?
new motor

i checked it out today change air filter and some pipework
it should fit quite good.
i was going to spend about $2000 on a front cut only.
this one only done 20,000 k s but to much damage will keep looking.
thanks for your input Dave

F8C runs from '99 to 2004, however Daewoo have since been nuked, and Holden's support for spares is apparently less than fantastic. (Which is pretty much the same story for Daihatsu owners trying to source parts through Toyota.)
Size is the same as the F8B (796cc) although it has an extra handful of HP (F8C = 37kw, F8B = 29kw) thanks to the higher compression and EFI setup. The plastic intake plenum/runners look a bit nasty though.
