So his engine he goosed
With much too much boost,
And drove a rod through his block.

You can swap a LX (or an Escort GT) manual trans to a SOHC motor, but you will need the following:
LX axels and hubs.
most likely the brake rotors and calipers depending on what your brake setup is, if you are at stock brakes you may need to switch over to the LX brakes, I dont know if you can put a 13 22V caliper on a 14 hub you would have to try it. half shaft and mounting bracket from the LX
LX flywheel, and LX clutch kit

you will need to find a half shaft w/mount, axles, clutch, flywheel,a dn of course the tranny. Dont forget that the driverside tranny mount is differet, but the other mounts will work. if you want pull another set and eurthane them.
LOOK if you dont know what you are talking about STFU. if you had done this swap you would not have mentioned brakes, rotors, or hub. that half of the alxe is the same between the 2.When you turn your car on... does it return the favor?
