Red Top Shopping list

I'm going to buy all the gaskets for my engine from Vauxhall (Luckily I know someone that works in the parts department)

The engine is from a 1993 K reg Cavalier SRi but has a coil pack not a distributor.

Please could someone tell me what engine number ranges I need for:
Top end -
Head gasket
Inlet
Exhaust
Rocker cover
Head bolts - Female Torx bolts 105mm long?

Bottom end -
Sump gasket

Early engine timing belt and tensioners - Vauxhall Part Number - 93174266 ?

Water pump - GM Part Number R1160034 Up To engine 14142838 ?

Are there any others I'm missing??

I think that 93 would be a "later" engine. Check your engine number. IIRC it's on the lip where the bellhousing fits up to the block. There are a couple of options on the sump gaskets too and I think it is the two part rubber one that incorporates the windage tray that is a lot easier to fit.
Migweb is a great source of valver info

I'm after the gaskets for my later engine but wanting to use early type timing belt kit and water pump.

Are they a direct swap?......cam and crank pulleys too?

all the gaskets are the same, but use a 2.0 8v baffle plate and gasket for the sump, head bolts change on later type also

as for the early setup you need the backing plate for this also and need to modify the oil pump as these are different from early to late setup, water pump same (1 has an extra shield which can be removed though)

TBH nothing wrong with the late setup unless you plan on reving it past 7500rpm constantly as this is what the turbo applications use as standard

if the engine you have in in good condition i wouldn't bother changing everything just wip the sump off clean it up check you big-ends and fit ARP's and re-fit using the 8v baffle plate and shorter bolts

if you need anymore info U2 me as i've built countless XE's and LET motors and ran a 200bhp+ 2.0 16v throttle bodied nova for 18 months (many moons ago though when i was young)

oh and i order all my stuff from AUTOVAUX in wakefield all genuine vaux parts at rock bottom prices and ask for KIERON

ask for parts for late style C20XE coil-pack type and you'll get all the right parts no messing about oh and for piece of mind if you going throttle bodies or Carbs ask for the C20LET head gasket as it has extra webbing around the water ways

Dont forget those invisible carbed ones with those great harnesses and those extra special rubber cheques!
