#21 of 30 The swap from 2.2 L to 4.3 L by ridin_wild2000 Feb 11, 2008 (5:25 pm)
I am currently finishing up a swap in my 95 s10 the swap is very painless. Your best bet though is to find a car or truck with everything in it that goes to the engine, then you can swap the computer and everything else that matches the 4.3L. Our biggest problem was deciding which 4.3L to use when incountering a Vortec it is all wires and elctronic you could do all the chasing or you go like I did with a TBI, that was the easiest route along with plenty of upgrade options. The 4.3L has the same bolt hole pattern as a small block v8 so the 2.2L tranny wont match up and the 4.3L tranny is longer. So the best bet there for us was to either find a shorter drive shaft or a split yoak that would work, the other option is to buy an adapter kit that would allow me to use my t5 tranny from the 2.2L I think we bought this adapter from ADVANCEADAPTERS.COM

Replying to: philscbx (Nov 13, 2007 4:22 am) what are you smokin? i have built both 305,s and 307,s that have totally creamed so called "balanced&bluprinted engines". i had a 69 chevelle that had a tonowanda 307 in it and i wiped the street with everything that it came up against except for bvelieve it or not ,a supercharged 72 mazda rx 3. i also had a 76 monza spyder with a 305 in it. i raced motorcycles with that car. the 307 was a cross between a 283 and a 327. the 305 is a cross between a 262 and a 350. these motors are not given the respect that they really do deserve.the only real difference between them ( other than the 400) is bore size and heads.and that is cureable.as for more power from a 350? i have a 262 on my trike that pops out around 285 hp on pump gas.

Can any one tell me what problems I would have swaping a 95 2.2 with a 2001 2.2 ? Would it be worth the swap as far as what I would have to change . Replies to this message: infanti (Feb 26, 2009 9:01 am)

#30 of 30 Engine Swap by ace89 May 29, 2009 (2:38 pm)
The engine in my '87 GMC S15 isn't the greatest, it's a 2.8 V6 so i want to switch it out. I want power so i would like to go with a small diesel engine. Has anyone done this?
