I think you may have to be the one to verify it. You might be able to find that K&N filter at a local store (autozone/etc). Just go there and see if it will fit in, although be careful with the upper housing as there has already been one failure. [see top of this thread]

Have you already tried this filter in a SS/TC or are you just going off of what you know about these two engines? I plan on picking one up and giving it a shot...I'll let everyone know what I find out.

Just going off that the 2.0 and the 2.2 both have the same lower filter housing [same part number] (which the filter sits in, so basically they fit the same filters), so if a K&N fits the 2.2 it will fit the 2.0.

Thanks! I'll let you guys know! It might be a week or two until I get around to it, but I'll be sure to let all you SS/TC owners know!

33-2311 is the k&n filter that fits. go to autozone and ask if they have 2311 k&n filter. They will know exactly. Yeah everyone please learn something from my 40$ mistake. much thanks again to cobalt ss/tc for being informative instead of critisizing.

Ok this is from Service info from GM, i just wanted to inform people so this doesn't happen again, that breather hose is supposed to be removed from the intake while removing the air filter or working on the intake tube!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! it is a simple disconnect procedure.If you look at the pic it is the cream color tab that you press together to release tube.Hope this helps people out.

sorry to bring such an old post to the top. I started a thread about this in another section, and then finally came across this thread in the search. Looks like my problem is identical to this one. Just wondering what this hose does? And what would happen if I was driving for a month or two with this broken?

you could probably run a breather filter off of it. I've seen that done on alot of rice looking cars but it would work. Just plug the hole on the intake side.
The only downside I could imagine to using those little filters is an oil blow by is going to either clog up the filter or spew oil and grease onto your hood or across the engine.
