cobalt SS turbo engine and trans with ECU flash.
Price range?
Dunno ebay the parts its shouldnt be over 4000 for the engine trans then you need a tune shop for the ecu. You need custom mounts and suspension peices. there is a thread on here to do that swap go to the search bar and look up LSJ swap it should point you in the right direction.
Isn't the Cobalt engine much heavier than our 1.6L? When doing an engine swap, do you need to alter the front suspension at all?
yes new suspension is needed but but not somuch as theweight but because of the knuckles and axles needed for the swap.
So if I do swap the engine what all needs to change besides suspension and transmission?
Here is the thread on the swap
