Well I am new to the j body org ,however i have two j bodys a 83 j2000 hatch and a 2005 sunfire .
Is there away to put a different engine in the 83 im told that only a 1.8 ohc will fit and its dead .I want a ecotec in it but haha will it fit ,any ideas thanks.
You can put anything in it if you really wanted to..
Just depends on your ability, knowledge, tools available and motivation.
Mainly ability and knowledge.
What would be a good swap. 2.2ohv,2.2ecotec, 3400/3500. our should i just build the crap out of that 1.8, it did get great gas mileage .
