i have a 97 escort and want to do an engine swap. i was looking at a rebuilt 6 cylinder ford probe GT engine or a 4 cylinder probe engine. if these options won't work, what will? and how hard/easy will it be?

p.s. this is not kyel, this is his friend

Well they put a mustang cobra engine in a focus so maybe you could do the same with your escort >>

blow your car up

make it look like it wasen't your fault

take insurance settlement money and buy a 6th gen gt

save money

swap 3s-gte

hahahahaah

i'm with jayi.
find some stupid driver thats in a honda and get in his way. the settlement money should be in the mail in 3 weeks!

take ur car to boston and leave the keys in it
or put a sign in it saying steal me

or some big city

w00t. thats what i told him, but hey... he owns a ford what are ya gonna do? >>

Custom Turbo baby. Or no2.

I feel so sorry for you (the owner of the Ford). *cries*

Just save money and get NOS, the motor will probably only go till 80,000 anyways.

the probe turbo engine isnt all that bad.

What you want is a bpt, its a straight forward swap for your car, people do it all the time with the 4cyl mazda mx-3. I have a v6 mx-3 and I was considering the klze swap and still would be if I was going to keep my car.

By the way the kl-ze only has 200bhp, and thats all things being equal, so exhaust and everything else should be the same as the jspec car. Most people get around 170whp out of it.

Dont bother with a v6 just get a turbo 4cyl, and i wouldnt recommend turboing a ford escort stock engine, those things can barely hold up stock.
