difference between 1.4 e-tec 2 & 1.4 ecotec engines

guys could you guys please tel me if there are any similarities between the two?
or can we mix and match?

Thanks

NO i dot think they are a match..

do you have the ecotec? you can swap up to a 1.8l z18xer? as an almost direct swap..

if you can pin out the etec to the body harness as the same to the ecotec, then you can still do it.
or i you do that you could also swap the z16let, or the z16ler. Which is what i want to do..

you can stay in the etc family. and stroke and bore yourself up to a 1.6, or even a 1.8 potentially. but you would need to verify that on daewoo tech. Is you engine a 16v?

yes my engine is a 16v DOHC, the same as Xiaos car.

ok, then i would suggest a swap.

earlier engines than i listed could fit as well, but look to the vauxhall/opel line up, for the most part they share our mounts. their pre ecotec engines might be a match for you. but i have not verified that.

what i want to know is if the new ecotec as in the aveo rs ever comes out, can i swap parts?
the rs is claimed to be putting about 138 horses being a 1.4 dohc. could i achieve the same by mixing and matching and adding a blower?

no, but you can do the whole engine swap..

but the 1.4t in he cruze and aveo is essentially a smaller and detuned vxr z16ler engine.. which should be more readily available in areas that came with the 1.4 ecotec anyhow.

Im a big fan of the 2.2 Ecotec they have some good power my friend has on in Cavalier its pretty quick do any of the Aveo motors have variable valve timing

i think they all have variable valve timing. of some sort?
