what's the diameter of a stock 2.2l ecotec throttle body and would it bolt up to a 2200 without an assload of customization and/or machining?
58mm, not sure how well they match up.
why not just do the 56mm swap from the 2.3?

1) i like having cruise control
2) i'm considering boost in the summer, and i wanted something a little bigger than 56mm, and i also refuse to give the theives at rsm $400 for a 62mm.
3) i'm trying to avoid to avoid having to do any machining whether i get my stock tb bored about, or i have a 56mm boared out.
on that note, i'm already pretty sure of what i would like to do with a throttlebody.
having said that, does anybody know if an 2.2l ecotec throttle body will fit a 2200?
and not sound like a dick but, if you really don't know the answer, don't post.
its 56mm and no it wont fit right without modification.
I used to race cars, now I race myself.

1) you can bore out your stock TB to whatever size you want so you can have CC
2)and if you want a 62 mm. just go to a junkyard and get a spare TB and have that one bored out to 62mm so you can still drive your car
3)either pay to have yours bored out or get butt raped and pay $400 for one

i was tryin to avoid it, but that looks like what im gonna have to do. the only thing i'm unsure about is where i can get a bigger throttle plate to fit the bigger diameter. autozone maybe?
The shop thats machining the TB should be able to make a new plate, either out of aluminum(optimum) or brass, which is commonly used on the aftermarket ones for are cars.
Failure is not failure if you learn from it
