hey yall... i have a base 97 cavalier with a 3 speed automatic, i hate that its not a standard but i found a 5 speed from
a 98 CAVALIER Z 24... would this part just "bolt" on i know i will have to some mods to it, but will it be a mojor
ordeal? aslo i know this is the wrong forum, but i was wondering if a 97'ish z24 DOHC cam head would fit onto my
block, i have no engine mods except a intake...which dosent make much difference...
thanx for your time
^^ what he said, u have a 2.2 ohv motor, a 2.4 has dual overhead cams, with a completly different everything, ud be better off selling and buying a z24 with all the money and work involved
no problem, better yet, find a 02 with an eco and factory lips, best cav imo
lol i made this exact same post almost 2 years ago back when I wanted to do an infamous "Honda Head Swap" Just save your money and get yourself a nice ecotec like I did. Its not worth modding an old skool 2.2 unless you are going major. (Ex. boost or juice)
oh ok... well how does all of that cost??? im really just looking for a manual tranny... so if its cheaper to get a different car il do that instead, im not so much looking for power, just fun
haha... on that note, are there any manual trannys that will fit my car? (again its a 97 cavalier base. 2.2L ohc)
i was looking in the library and found
this ... doesnt that prove that i can swap those two? just the bell housings are different??? im probly reading it wrong... and im not tryin to shuve this in any ones face
keep searching!! you'll get there!
thats my way of saying im not sure

ok thanx, i found a isuzu 5 speed on ebay that they say it will fit 97 2.2 but its new and 400 bucks,, no linkage... if there is anyone out there that can help i would greatly appreciate it
trust me... just sell your car and find a 5 speed z24 or 2.2.... especially if its the base model just sell yours and find a nice 5 speed.
