Hello Everyone,<P>This is my first post WOOHOO, haha. <P>I actually own a 1987 B2000 Pickup truck. It has a 2.0 liter piston engine. I was wondering what kind of potential an engine like this has? also what kind of engines can maybe be swapped into the truck? also, are there any sites out there for trucks like this? I've been looking all over the place, but haven't had any luck at all... <P>Any help would be awesome! Thank you in advance.<P>Thanks,<BR>Beau

That is the same bottom end as a FE3, it just has the 8v head. <A HREF="http://plaza.ufl.edu/mugen23/FE.htm" TARGET=_blank>http://plaza.ufl.edu/mugen23/FE.htm</A>

What car does the FE3 come out of?? So the actual block is the same, it's just the heads that are kinda crappy?? Would the FE3 heads basically just bolt on?? I'm new the the whole mazda world... I owned an '86 Honda CRX, and so far that was the biggest piece of crap that i've driven. I think mainly since the previous owners didn't do ANY maintainence. But so far this truck seems like the most solid little truck I've ever driven. Madza kicks a--....<P>Beau<p>[ July 22, 2002: Message edited by: Jhangles ]

Join <A HREF="http://www.probetalk.com" TARGET=_blank>www.probetalk.com</A> and search the 1st gen performance forum for "FE3". A guy named Jay B in Orlando at PSI Racing can get them for pretty cheap. I can get you his number if you're looking to buy one. They're freakin bulletproof <BR> <A HREF="http://members.aol.com/solomiata/FE3.html" TARGET=_blank>http://members.aol.com/solomiata/FE3.html</A><p>[ July 22, 2002: Message edited by: David Coleman ]

What would the reliability and horse power difference be if I just went to a junk yard and got some '95+ Kia Sportage heads??
