Here are some pictures of my ecotec swap that i have been working on for the last couple weeks.My car is a 97 that used to have the 2.2 ohv.I got my donor car off of ebay with only 16,000 miles and had it shipped down from Wisconsin.

Why does it look like the passenger side of the engine sits higher?

i woulfd have fixed the donor car and been done.

I thought about just trying and fix my donor car, too.

Its because of the picture in person it sits level.

I saw that auction. It was at 500 for a good while. Did you end up getting the car for 500? Good deal for sure. How much was it to ship?

I wish i got it for $500 I won it for around $1000 and paid $500 to ship it.

Did you finish yet?

I want to share something with you - the three sentences that will get you through life. Number one, 'cover for me', Number two, 'oh, good idea, boss', Number three, 'it was like that when I got here.'

how was it swapping over the brakes? I just kept my old brake system in there and they still work great, well besides the no ABS thing. Did you just bend yours to fit or did you run all new lines?

I used the 03 brake master cylinder and jut bent my lines to fit it.

Does anyone know what that wing is off of? I see that on Deal Razzi kitted cavs all the time and I have no clue.
