    Pony/ BP swap

    OK! I'm Swapping out my Pony 1.9 for the BP. My question is ,is the 1.9 lx the same as the 1.9 pony? The reason I'm asking is that I drove my friends lx the other day and it definately has more balls than my pony bone stock.

    Also, if I do this swap, would I beable to use the 1.9's tranny or is it not compatable with the 1.8?
    Now I'm going to have the whole engine but no tranny. I know I'm going to need the wiring harness and computer, will I need engine mount to or will I beable to use the pony's?

            also all 1.9's are the same 91-96. the pony should be faster in theory because its a base model... lighter.

              I told you in a PM that you need to get a trans and axles. i have the front and rear trans mounts im including for you. but you need the brackets that they bolt to. as well as the parts for the engine mount on the passenger side. i think you can use your body bracket but need the different mount. i believe you can use your cross member but use these mounts.

                  I didn't know if the pony was running different gears or something, because my car is alot slower than my friends LX.

                      its possible, ford did have an optional fuel saver tranny where 2-4 are taller than the normal tranny. better fuel economy but slower accelleration. probably impossible to tell which trans you have unless you have a build sheet for the car or you measure your gear ratios one way or another.

                        Yeah, cause I was wondering why I didn't have the same acceleration as my friends LX. Thats alright I'm buying Matt91gt's BP this weekend and thus beginning the new life for the pony!

                          I guess I was under the impression that a b8 had more power than the ford 1.9?? So wouldn't that mean that a lx would really pull an escort 1.9??

                              pony has smaller thinner wheels as well which should be helping acceleration. ive had a pony and it was awsome. WOT all day long and she never complained. sounds like yours is not running right. they should be just a tad slower than a EGT if they are running right and you dont add any weight
