Re: 97 cavalier 2.2L swap for Buick Century 3.8L
Are u sure u wana do it?? i already tought about it...i hope u have a good knowledge-money AND time...from what ppl told me its like a big Pita...you need custom mounts, tranny from a00-05, custom flywheel, also computer needs to be reflashed and bla bla bla!! oh and think about it its a 3.8L ($$$fuel$$$) but if u REALY wana do it and u think u CAN do it...try to find a 3.8l sc, its better than the reg 3.8, and do it if ur planing on keepin ur car for a while...or its a wast of time/$MONEY$, a money that u can spend on an ecotec cavalier or at least z24 95-98 with nice mods and a turbo. I changed my mind cuz i have a 97 2.2 and swap that engine wud cost 2much and i cant make many pieces for make it fit! i dont need all that power..i dont need to get to the red light faster..a turbo will make the job..and the reg mods like exaust header etc. think aboutit cuz u can regret it...it will be UR lose then! swap a 2.4 or ecotec instead of the 3.8 on a small car like cavalier!! Oh and u dont only need the engine of the buick or bonneville or wtv car u gonna take then engine of..u need some parts...forgot which parts..but theres some!! so ull proly need to buy the car(u can keep the bonneville/buick for winter with the 2.2engine....its gonna be slow..but at least u won a winter car!!)
