Engine Swap "Sort of"

[Lasertime]

Ok heres another one for you guys to chew on. What would it take to stick a 2.4 in a car that has a 2.2. besides money or course. I know the motor mouts would need to be changed and the computer system. and i think the tranny should mount up not sure though. Any advice or heard of this before

What a cavalier? It should go in as easy as it can do. you'd need the ECM and the harness and probably have to modify the fuel system, pum etc. I'd also want to ugrade the suspension and brakes

the trannys arent the same. as for what you will need to get started: 2.4 engine/trans,axles for 2.4,ecu and harness,fuel lines in engine compartment will have to be modded (but pump should work though),exhaust (from manifold to cat),and mounts.that should get you started.
