So I bought a 1998 4 Door Cavalier that is in nice shape..... 5 miles after i bought it it spun 2 rod bearings... I have a 99 Engine without the EGR.... MY question is will the 99+ engine be fine just have a check engine light on for not having an EGR Ive done Research and haven't found anything about this.... if not herd back from in the next couple days ill let you guys know how it goes....

egr is the least of your worries you need to swap stuff off your 98 engine for it to work right
knock sensor
egr
intake and exhaust manifold
injectors

why replace the knock sensor it plugged right into the 99 one and i ended up swapping the 98 head over with the intake and injectors anything else... Funny story i got it all put together went to start it and pushed the clutch pedal and it blew the master off the firewall any idea.... well im replacing the master tomorrow will let you know how that works out

Bump? Did this work out? my buddy has the same project. 98 cavi with bad 2200 and has another 2200 without egr.
"If I'm not back in 5 minutes...just wait longer"
worked out just fine just had egr code and had a rich code but i just pulled the bulb but for a daily driver what do i care

ignore my post i didn't see the 2200 thing
enigne should work you may just have to put the 98 EGR on
