    Another SOHC to DOHC question

    I would like to do the engine swap (not by myself) from 1.6 to 1.8 (DOHC probably) i know that i have to change the gearbox but i would do that anyway. What else do i need to change? So, i have 1990 1.6 92hp engine, 5 gear and i want 1.8 DOHC 5 gear.
    Thanks

    ok, i have answered this several times. but i guess one more time wont kill me.

    Your gear box WILL bolt up to a 1.8L DOHC. you have the F tranny iirc. you will need to swap your current flywheel to the BP engine. keep in mind your gear box has a safety factor of about 75 hp. so it should be good. just be nice to the tranny.

    there is a few other wiring things. i have writen about them 4 or 5 times.

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

      Lets play "guess the number of times brock will answer the question until he goes nuts."
      The T3 BP MX-3 conversion has begun, and is taking forever & will kill me.

          the gear ratios/final drive on all 90-94 Proteges LX (DOHC) are the same ?

          the same question for 90-94 Proteges DX (SOHC).

          and 3rd..please..the numbers of the gears and final drive of both tranny.

            go do your own research.

                why not just install the DOHC motor.

                It's the better mazda motor, for the car.
