how do i tell the engine codes apart...... im looking in the junk yard for an echo tech for my 2000 4 dr cavalier.
It is spelled ecotec...officially pronounced "echo tech"... pronounced "eeko tech" by the masses here.
The engine rpo code is L61. If the cavalier or sunfire is an 03-05 it has an ecotec. But for @!#$s and giggles, here is a post of what the ecotec looks like (minus all of the charge pipes though)...

fixed it for you. I believe some of the pre 2006 malibus were fly by wire. And you certainly can't swap in any of the 06+ ecotec's without extensive work and/or rewiring.

how much work would i need to do to put an ecotec into my 2000 cavalier or is it even worth it........should i just go buy a cavalier with one in it already and then work off of that?
