switching 94 gt to a 2000s gts motor Options

[homeboy]

Will this work? Sensors, tranny, etc..
I found a guy who loves to do mods. He said if I get the motor, he'll do the work free; simply spread the word about him. Is it going to cost a lot in conversions? I need to do something. I threw a rod racing at 120. I miss my car reaallll bad.
If this won't work, does anybody know where to find a cheap motor or rebuild kit?
Thanks, peace out

downsizing from a 2.2 to a 1.8 isn't the problem here. It's not about displacement, it's about compression. But it's a moot point since it's not a likely swap. I guess anything is possible, but what if the mechanic gets halfway through and says oh sh1t, I can't do this, and throws in the towel since he's doing it for free anyway?

You wanna do a less common swap, do a 6 cylinder swap.

well it depends honestly on wat your looking for. an ST's 7A is also a 1.8L but its designed vastly different. so unless you plan to drive over 5000 rpms just to get decent torque figures the 2ZZ isnt a great choice unless you plan on applying force induction. And parts alone are going to be expensive you might as well get a complete GTS even if he does it for free.
