i just bought a 1990 2200 ext cab with a bad motor, i also picked up a 1987 2000 with a good motor. im wanting to make the ext a running truck due to the clean straight body, as well as it being an extended cab.
will everything from the 2.0 swap onto the 2.2? im swapping the complete 2.0 engine in place of the bad 2.2 engine.
its been awhile since i have been on the forum. my old sn was audioinmotion. any help will be appreciated. yes i will be parting out the 87 after i get the 90 up and running correctly.
thanks.

Is this really true? I just got an engine yesterday, from an 87 mazda and it's a 2.0...it had a magnum cover on it. Will it go on with a b2200 tranny?

i just did this for the past two weeks (inbetween a full time job and a 2 year old kid)
for the most part yes it bolts up the same
but there are some diffreneces i dont know what you plan on doing but i ran into some issues
but i went from a 2.2 auto to a 2,0 5 speed
timing belts are diffrent 2.2 only one option
on the 2.0 there are a couple diffrent option 110 teeth round or square 109 round or square 22mm or a 19 mm
the little half disc that is on the crankshaft pully that lines up gear is diffrent between the 2.2 and the 2.0
the bolt that hold it in place is a driffrent length 2.2 is longer 2.0 short
water pump is way diffrent
starter is the same alt is the same it bolt the the motor mounts the same
IF YOU RUN INTO ANY PROBLEMS MAN DONT HESITATIE TO WRITE ME I CAN DO THIS IN MY SLEEP
I CAN TELL YOU WHERE EVERY NUT AND BOLT GOES BY JUST DESCIBING IT TO ME
IF YOUR GOING TO DO THIS BUY ONE OF THEM LITTLE PLASTIC TRY THINGYS AND PUT ALL YOUR NUTS AND BOLTS IN THERE ITS A LIFE SAVER
