Can I use a chevy 3.1 to replace a Buick 2.2 ?

Ok.... I have a 94 Century with a blown 2.2L I can get a whole car 94 Chevy Corsica with the 3.1L as a donor car.

How much trouble to transplant the 3.1 into the Buick?

A hole lot man.
Every thing would have to be changed and then it might not even be right.
More trouble than it is worth.
I would consider just getting another set of wheels.

Got it running....

Well, I bought a 94 2.2L with 84,000 on it. Got it for $500.

So far I've.

Installed the engine, with all new hoses, belt, air filter, fuel filter, fuel hoses from tank to filler neck, replaced the heater core, new radiator, rear shocks, front struts, passenger side half shaft, serviced the tranny, replaced the drivers outside door handle.
