If you have to put a new engine in it, you might as well make it worth your while. Throw some gargantuan beast in there.

check around Fayetteville,GA by Holyfields house (boxer) There are about 4 junkyards around that area and if you atleast look up the HH greg in Fayetteville you can more than likely find the junkyard. It's located on the street right behind that Fayetteville pavilion shopping center and any store in the area will be able to give you directions there. Then again, look on Ebay or something fo the engine too!

Build a nice 2.4 for it, it would be easier than swapping. But if you simply HAVE to have an Ecotec, there are people on here that have swapped before and could help you. Just search around the site.

well it already has a 2.4 in there, id keep it the same and probably just do a little work to the motor. the 2.4 has more hp then the eco ( only by 10 ). i know the eco is a better motor but you have to change alot to do the swap and it isnt easy from what i heard. so i would just keep the 2.4 in there and maybe just do some basic bolt ons
