      You can swap in the 2.0 (it was 2.0 right?) from a Chevrolet Optra, that has been done before. Not sure what that involves though you would have to check. Depending on where you are in Ontario I could recommend a few yards to talk to as well.

      There are a number of different engines that you can drop in. I think the largest being a 2.2L. Its been a while, but we talked about it in my repair thread here:
