Need confirmation that 5 Speed Transmission out 1993 Mazda Protege SOHC 1.8 liter Will Bolt up to the Same L-4 Block Engine /Mounts in the 1990 Mazda Protege LX 1.8 liter DOHC

From wikipedia: Engine 1.5 L B5-ZE I4 DOHC
1.6 L B6-ME I4 SOHC
1.6 L B6D I4 DOHC
1.8 L K8 V6 DOHC Transmission 5-speed manual
4-speed F4A-EL automatic Mazda MX 3 Wikipedia the free encyclopedia

what are you doing> , buying a bare block?

why not say what is in hand. (fit what? just tranny and mounts or what? , be legal or make EFI happy, or ? all other parts on engine?)

i did a www scan and in 1 second, bam the 4 banger

not the 4 liter.



2.5L gas engine not the diesel of same size.

so...

1984 to 2002 run (all year run lenght) not an answer.



http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AMC_straight-4_engine



what does FIT mean.

to the mounts, the transmission, all will

pass smog

be legal, say in CALIF? (strict year codes there.... btw)

make EFI happy (fit)

just the block, short block or just a naked block. you never said./

key fact on bell housing

Instead of the standard AMC bell housing bolt pattern, AMC/Jeep engineers adopted the General Motors small V6 and four-cylinder bolt pattern



short answer, all years fit, the short block.



In 1986 the head went under a minor revision, the head bolts were increased from 7/16 to 1/2 inch.

id bet that be lowest year.

never on ebay. avoid them for facts.





you need a 530 block.

shop for that.

The MX-3 came with three engine options: a 1.5 L I4 (only found in the Autozam AZ-3), a 1.6 L I4 and a 1.8 L V6. The 1.6 L was available in two versions, an 88 hp (66 kW) SOHC/16-valve B6-ME unit which powered 1992 and 1993 models, or a 106 hp (79 kW) DOHC/16-valve B6-D unit which was found in 1994 and later models. The Japanese market DOHC/16-valve B5-ZE produced 115-120 PS (85-88 kW) (lower powered in automatic versions) and the most powerful DOHC 24-valve V6 K8-DE produced 140 PS (103 kW) at 7,000 rpm (Japan) and 130 hp in North American models. All were available with a 5-speed manual or an optional 4-speed automatic transmission, depending upon the market.

I do not have a breakdown diagram for a distributor, but just the firing orders and description of ignition system for the Dodge Colt and related models (based on Chilton manuals) if that's what you're looking for: FIRING ORDERS Fig. 1: 1990 1.8L SOHC Engines Firing order: 1-3-4-2 Rotation: clockwise

Fig. 2: 1.6L DOHC Engine Firing order: 1-3-4-2 Distributorless Ignition

Fig. 4: 1.5L Engine Firing order: 1-3-4-2 Rotation: counterclockwise

To avoid confusion, replace spark plug wires one at a time. --- Distributor REMOVAL & INSTALLATION Although the distributor can be removed from the engine no matter which cylinder is about to fire, it is a good idea to have number one cylinder at TDC before distributor removal. 1.5L, 1.8L, 2.4L SOHC Engines

1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
2. Disconnect and tag the spark plug wires from the distributor cap.
3. Disconnect the distributor harness connector.

4. Loosen the distributor retaining bolt and remove the distributor from the engine. To install:
   
5. Rotate the engine until No. 1 cylinder is at TDC on its compression stroke. NOTE: Be careful not to turn it to the No. 4 cylinder TDC on its compression stroke by mistake.
   
6. Align the distributor housing and gear mating marks.

The engine mounts are located about the middle of the block on the side of the engine. The only other mount is located under transmission.
