2.2 2200 swap into '96 Z24
Tuesday, August 28, 2007 2:31 PM
Ok, first off, yes I am wanting to swap a 2.2 2200 engine into a '96 Z24.

Last week I managed to wreck my 1999 Cavalier RS and it the damage is far too expensive to repair. However, the engine and transmission are still good, as is almost every other thing else on the car. The driver door is trashed and the other car sent my cowl panel several inches in, causing $2200 in damage. Seeing as I paid only $900 for the car, I cannot stomach that kind of cost.

Being that I need a car, I have found a '96 Z24 with a bad engine for a much more reasonable price. Is it possible (which from reading I think it is) and fairly simple to swap the 2.2 from the '99 Cavalier into the '96 Z24?

Thanks in advanced for your help.

you'd need the engine AND trans, some ether odds and ends, but yeah, can be done

OK, well I do have the engine and transmission from the '99 so that's not a problem.

I've been poking around the forums looking for more help, and so far I think I also need the wiring harness and computer as well. These are simple to swap I assume?
