The 1991 geo storm is not classified as a non-interference motor. Instead, it features an interference engine design, meaning that if the timing belt fails, the pistons can collide with the valves, potentially causing significant engine damage. It's important for owners to maintain the timing belt and replace it according to the manufacturer’s recommended schedule to avoid such issues.
Yes.
Yes, it does.
Yes. Edit, yes, but if you are dealing with a swap from the SOHC to a DOHC other parts are needed like the motor mount and ECM.

where do you add manuel transmission fluid on a 1991 geo storm 5 speed
the clutch is really easy to install and the timing belt is not a problem if its shot The 1993 Geo Storm is not an interference motor, because my belt just broke,(Nov 2005) and I got the same question answered on the following website: "www.nutzandboltz.org". My daughter's 1990 Geo Storm timing belt broke while she was driving it. She tried to start the engine but it would not run. We were told that it was an interference motor and that the motor was now shot. Being a little skeptical of the "experts" I put a new timing belt on and the engine started and has run fine for several months (clutch just went out). So much for the experts, by the way how ard is it to change the clutch? Thanks M in Omaha

Yes any Storm motor will fit in any storm, however you will also need the wiring harness from the new engine if it is not the IDENTICAL motor. You will also then need the ECM. Storm Motors Include 1.6 SOHC 12v (90-93 Base Model) 1.6 DOHC 16v (90-91 GSi) 1.8 DOHC 16v (92-93 GSi) Sources... www.isuzone.org www.stormowners.com
