Good thing about swapping a 1.6 for 2.0L is that they both look exactly the same.
Take a couple of photos of the Sierra engine bay with the old engine, clean up new engine rocker cover, paint it a different cover, photograph that on the 1.6 in the Sierra.
Send off V5 with new engine number and new capacity, Job done.
The 1.6 is not worth much so strip off ally front covers, crank & jack shaft covers, alternator bracket and adjuster, starter, rocker cover and sump, pickup and oil pump, jack shaft, distributor, anything that will come off really
