Re: Aveo 2.2L Swap

My gf's car just blew the t-stat housing apart. If the head warped I'm totally thinking about this swap as I used to be into Cav's and know a lot of guys that would have the knowledge to help me out. Here's praying that nothing happened to the motor though. I got enough projects!!

Re: Aveo 2.2L Swap

I don't mean to be messing with you, but the Cavalier was made in the US and the Aveo was made in S. Korea. They have nothing in common. An engine swap is not possible.

Not possible? I think you mean not probable. I saw somewhere that the bell housings would bolt up.
