So i found a real clean cavy for only $400...only problem is no motor. New clutch/flywheel/brakes, clean body and interior. Its a 98, which makes it a 2200 that came in it stock.
I just pulled the 2200 out of my 2001 s-10, in order to do a 350 swap. It just sitting in my garage with only 88,000 miles on it. Runs strong, no problems with it at all.
Is it possible to bolt the s10 2200 into the cavalier??? If so, is there anything major i should know (like modifications, relocation, etc)???? Need to know this ASAP. Thanks guys
hmmm, i wonder how u use this signature thingy
you can use the S10 motor, but you need a cavalier power steering pump + bracket, intake manifold, header, and I believe oiil pan and possibly the pump pickup as well... Possibly a few other parts too. If you don't have all those components, it may actually end up cheaper to get a whole motor from a junkyard (i've rarely seen a yard want more than $200-300 for a 2200, because there are SOOOO many out there) with all the accessories and manifolds already on it. Car-part.com is a good place to start looking, but also check your phone book for local yards and parts suppliers to see what might be laying around.

you double posted.......
double posting is the devil.......
Read my reply in the other forum
can anybody give me a list of everything i need??? The only reason im trying to use this motor, is because theres only 88000 on it, and i cant seem to get anyone to buy it lol.
I have a couple good connections at junkyards (exgirlfriends families), so getting parts is not a big deal at all. Just need to know what i need to replace/relocate etc (oh yeah, and i love fabricating hehe)

dont quote me on this but im sure it will work the man thing you will need is different motor mounts like i said dont quote me but im almost positive
Big problem I see is there were three different number block castings and, if I remember correctly, the S-10 casting didn't have the same engine mount bolt holes drilled as the transverse applications. I could be wrong, but I may be right. Guys?
Go beyond the "bolt-on".
