Are you talking about the strut tower braces? There are LOTS of types of braces for cars, be more specific. Also, there were three types of 2.2L engines offered in 3rd generation J-bodies, you have the Ecotec. There are no clearance problems that I'm aware of with that engine and strut tower bars.

Those will fit on your car. I have a Vibrant rear bar, they work just fine and are pretty to boot.

Yup, they will fit. I have the front and rear ones, and love them. Nice quality.

The only problem was with the old 2.2L ohv motor. The bars had a hard time fitting over the intake manifold.
