I was wondering if anyone knew if it would be possible to do an engine swap from a 2.2L I-4 to a 2.2L Ecotec without many many mods????

What is your definition of "many many mods"?

It takes a LOT, not just an engine, but the tranny, wiring harness, ecu, bcm, cluster, tranny mount, its tough work.

i talk to a mechanic a little bit ago and he told me that my tranny would fit and the only major problem i would have is getting the Ecotec engine to comply with my factory wiring harness and the intake and exhust manifold is on the oppsite side. What do yous think i should do get the eco or just turbo my original engine?

for the price of the motor and everything involved in doing the swap, you might as well sell your car and buy a used 02+ cav with the ecotec already in it.
