Anyway, just search for ECOTEC swap. Here's the first thread I found when I searched... http://www.j-body.org/forums/read.php?f=2&i=239259&t=239259 Good luck on your swap.

Sorry about that, I just saw you renamed the subject.

The 2.0 S/C will not bolt to the 2.4L or 2.2 Non-Eco tranny.

How hard is say an ECOTEC swap for a 2002 with the 2200? most things seem to be about the same, ie exhaust, tranny (5spd Getrag) and air filter say the least, but what about the wiring, I assume the PCM's would have to be swapped, but is the wiring as simple as unplugging one, and plugging in another?
