Re: I have a saturn sl2 and one of the pisten shot...
The 1.9 was used throughout the entire run of the sc2 and sl 2 vehicles from the early 90s through early 2000s. Some sensors and accessories may be different but the long block is the same.

If you are replacing a DOHC 1998 engine with another DOHC 1998 engine yes it will work. Saturn only made two engines from 91-99 and they all had the same block, difference some were SOHC and others were DOHC. The number "1" after SL or SC or SW means SOHC while the number "2" after SC or SL or SW means a DOHC.
Note if one is an auto and the other manual you are going to have to swap the flywheel/ring gear stuff over.
If your thinking of interchanging the head or short block then you can, depending on the cylinders, because the saturn sl2 2000 and 1999 were one of the few models ever to make a 1.9 liter DOHC. if you have a 1.8 DOHC then you should be fine with a 2001 or 2002
I would not remove a 20 year old part, and install an 11 year old used part when a new part is only $30.00. I would not go to the trouble of removing any 11 year old part from any vehicle, especially if it involved removing an engine mount, a serpentine belt, and a cam chain cover, when a new part is only $30.00. I would not attempt to swap any engine parts between DOHC and SOHC engines even if the blocks are the same. Do not put in used wear items as you will end up doing it right again in a few months.
All saturns 91-99 had the same engine block. The starter is on the back of the engine underneath the intake manifold. It is a pain in the a** to get at and replace, do yourself a favor and let someone with a lift and real tools do it for you.
Whatever year has the 1.9l dohc engine, but there always different changes to the motor, like intake manifold or the fuel rail. Make sure if you get a different 1.9l it is the dohc not sohc or you have to get the ecm for sohc. From what I know the 95-'00 SL2 have the 1.9l dohc.
