Fitting a 2.2L header on a 2200
Thursday, April 27, 2006 6:49 PM
I just won this header:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1,1&item=8058794015&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT

It was too cheap to pass up. Brand New. I have a 2002 Cavalier 2200. I kinda want to know what i got myself into, and if its worth me buying this instead of the 2200 header. I have heard that there is a differance in where the header connects to the cat. Is this true? What do i have to do?

1 you didnt need a new post

2 i told you already , youll have to have the end of the extension modified to work with your cat

also you will have to have the hanger bracket cut off your stock pipe and welded to the extension

other than that it is easy , and great deal on the header

also, the ports are bot going to line up......2.2/2200 hae different exhaust ports...you may be hurting performance, not helping..
