I'm looking for a 2.4L Ecotec crate engine. I haven't had any luck finding them on the web...anyone have any sites that you can purchase them? Also need the manual tranny for it. I'm looking to do the motor swap, but I need the motor first. Thanks for the help!

I believe the 2.4 eco is drive by wire so that would be a bitch to do. Feel free to correct me if Im wrong someone.

If it's that big of a pain in the ass, I'll settle for the 2.2L ecotec....which I know where to find. I'd much rather have the 2.4, but I don't care as long as I get rid of the 2.2 OHV and auto tranny!

There's not too much of a difference between the 2.4 eco and the 2.2 eco. But for the sake of ease, go with the 2.2 eco.

Yeah its looking like I'm going to have to go for the 2.2 ecotec. Not a big deal...now to decide weather to super or turbo it lol. I've got too many plans for this car :rolleyes:

ecotec loves boost, I would go with a turbo.

I'll second that, although there is a GM supercharger kit, I would still go with turbo, may take a little more time and money, but it will be worth it not to have the power-robbing SC pulley...

I'm willing to spend whatever just about, I drive with an iron foot, and I'm not afraid to admit it, and it is my daily driver. I was thinking of getting an electronic boost controller if I went with the turbo.
