90 to 94 protege , 91-95 escort GT/ Will have the motor you will need.

The front and rear tranny mount brackets are different then the F series tranny( which is on the 1.6L) brackets. You will also need the top right tranny mount too.

Best bet is to go with the G series tranny if you can afford it.

Car-Parts.com Has the BP. The 95 plus is I believe OBDII wiring and your MX is OBDI
