Thanks for your comments,Nd4SpdSe wrote:Nice! I'm glad to see some with an idea and actually follow through. I think I probably gave you a hard time when you asked about it, more likely cause newbies like to come around and ask about cross-breed swaps, to which I've never seen one done, until now. I take back anything I said, and give you props for the work, you ahd the skill and the knowledge to pull it off.![]()

So what was the work like putting it in? The mounts, fitament, the tranny and axles and stuff? I'd really like to hear how it all came together. Too bad you had that background music in the video, I would of really liked to hear how she sounds...
You are right, 1995+ sportage....lol, 300hp sportageFE
The 2.0 L (1998 cm³) FE was very different with a square 86 mm bore and stroke. It was an 8-valve SOHC engine for front-wheel drive and real wheel drive pickup use. Output was 83 hp (62 kW) for the carburetor version, or 93 hp (69 kW) with fuel injection.
Applications:
1983-1987 Mazda Capella/626
1985-1987 Mazda B2000
Mazda MX-6
1983-1987 Mazda 929
[edit]
FET
The 8-valve turbocharged FET version of the FE produced 116 hp (87 kW) and 137 ft·lbf (186 N·m). The Japanese variant of this engine was dubbed the Magnum Turbo.
Applications:
1984-1986 Mazda Capella (Japan)
Ford Telstar turbo
1986-1987 Mazda 626 Turbo
Mazda MX-6
Ford Probe
[edit]
FE3
The FE3 was a DOHC variant of the FE. Officially called the FE DOHC, it was used in some European and Japanese Mazdas, but no American or Australian ones. However, it can be found in the U.S., Australian, and other 1995+ Kia Sportage. It can be fitted with a crankshaft from the F2 to produce 2.3 L Stroke, but there are numerous problems with this conversion including requiring aftermarket pistons. Engines with a black rocker cover are 1.8 L, while those with a gold cover are 2.0 L. There were at least six different FE DOHC engines available.
A high-compression variant of the FE3 exists but the only truly distinguishing mark is the domed pistons inside the engine. Factory redline was 7000 rpm but well made examples with aftermarket engine management and better valve springs are seeing continued 8000 rpm usage.
