V6 Question

Hello all,
I read over some of the 4 cylinder and v6 posts but couldnt really find anything on them, and then i didnt know which one to post under. Anyway, would a v6 engine from a 1992 mx6 fit into 1994 mx3 originally 4 cylinder. I know that it wouldnt be just a plug and play and im off into the sunset but is it too much of a hassel to do this or is it possible. My mx3 kicked the bucket and i want to revive it with this inexpensive engine and trans with low mileage.
Thank You

Possible, but with all the work and money you'll spend it would be easier to replace it with another 4 cylinder. Get a BPT instead. :D

you need to replace the Harness with a K8, V6 harness.

It will be alot of work, the harness (both engine harness and dash harness) will need ot be repalced with a V-6 version, you also need a V6 ECU, crossmember, guage cluster and other things.
I would get a BP instead. a BPT isa turbo motor and still alot of work, but a BP is much more simple and they were in so many cars I'm sure you can find a decent one easily. The trans you have will bolt right up to a BP too.
