 BPT engine swap other than a mx-3I just recently crashed my beloved bpt swaped modified mx-3. I'm trying to replace it with another mx-3 but I can't find any good mx-3 that are in a good condition for me to swap the engine out. The engine survived the crash at least 90 percent of it. So since i cant find any good condition mx-3 I would like to swap it to another mazda. I know mazda 3 and the protege are in the same family but my question is can I swap a bpt engine into one of them or another car with ease? I would appreciate for any feed back anyone has be it good or bad. Thanks

Re: BPT engine swap other than a mx-3 Ford Festiva
Merkur XR4Ti (already turbo) Mazda BF 323 (pre 1990) Mercury Tracer Mazda Miata Kia Sephia Ford Aspire Just a few odd balls that Ive seen with BP's swapped in. The Tracer LTS came with a BP. Escort GT also had a BP. The Miata is obviously RWD. The BF I think came with a 1.6t in the GTX (along with 4x4). _________________ '94 RS in the middle of a BP+T swap. Click here to see my Garage.

Re: BPT engine swap other than a mx-3 Thanks alot and I'll check out the buy section in this forum. Also all the cars will have to OBD1 for me to swap out the engine right, cause I heard if I try to swap in the engine into a OBD2 car it wont pass emmission. Does anyone know idf thats true?
