Have anyone swapped the 1.8 motor in to a 1.6 chassis? If yes, how hard/easy was it for you? What is needed or required for the swap? Any information or feedback would be greatly appreciated!
FYI, Frank is doing a 1.8 automatic to 1.8 manual swap.i think frankthetank is doing the swap right now, hit him up
Hey Bill im far from a first timer, i built my last corolla by myself (keep in mind it was a Carbed 4AC to a fuel injected 4AGE swap), i just like being independent and use it as a learning process and not pay someone to do it for me.FYI, Frank is doing a 1.8 automatic to 1.8 manual swap.i think frankthetank is doing the swap right now, hit him up
He's trying to do it alone, as a first-timer, during a record-breaking heat wave in Anaheim, CA.
My hat's off to him, but I pity da foo!
I meant first Miata engine swap. Sorry, didn't mean to insult you!Hey Bill im far from a first timer, i built my last corolla by myself...
You mean the automatic engine is FS, right? Auto has lower c/r pistons among other differences from a 5-speed engine.And yes im doing a AUTO to MANUEL swap right now, i was lucky to find another 1.8 after i wrecked my first 1.8. If you are looking for an engine let me know i have one really cheap.
