Hi,love the site! I just Purchased a 72 burb that has a little "cancer". I am an ASE certified technician but no nothing of bodywork. I will be happy to trade advise if needed. Also looking for a good inexspensive supplier for body patch panels and things. Thanks in advance. Is there a key to abbreviations used here? What is TTT?

Welcome to the forum ! Im not into bodywork either lol so i cant help ya much on that, but I got a Q for you since youre SAE certified and probably wrench for a living maybe- do you happen to know if a 2.2L will go in place of a 2.0L in an '89 Sunbird ?
We're trying to find ways to save a really nice Sunbird thats about to blow up the 2.0L in it and I believe 2.2l are alot easier to find such as in the 90-92's, etc, and they seem to run forever, so,, ------------------ Randy- Lincoln, IL randy@ccaonline.com -71/C-10(thx teeitup and crews!)350 4+4/CH465(thx 71Chev, GMCPaul, and CPNE)longfleet bed(thnx meathead95)!still building it- -'84 Z28 H.O. 305 L69 700R4 GT4 3.73 - 1984 Firebird SE 2.8L T-5 GT4 3.73 -1981 Cutlass Supreme, dunno what im gonna do with it yet... -79 G20 pass van, 350/th350/10bolt *Paint is overrated © RSS Enterprises 2000 [This message has been edited by Fast68Chevy (edited March 28, 2002).] |

not off the top of my head, but I am concerned about all the sensor and the computer being the same. I think any engine will fit into any car with a big enough hammer! lol. if the harness fits the sensor then the only problem would be programming if you want I can check in to for you?

Do you mean patch panels like these? Sorry, I just had to tease you.

DaBurb- thats a big couple of patch panels, now !
hey Russ, yeah, I dont think there would be a whole lot different regarind electrical harness, but difference in the ECM probably could be fixed by swapping the old one out for a 2.2L one, im worried about engine mounts location and bellhousing bolt pattern, i figure if they used the 2.2L in the 90 models then they probably didnt change a whole lot in the car itself to put them in, i hope,..... thanks [This message has been edited by Fast68Chevy (edited March 28, 2002).] |
