Re: KLZE
What do you mean by "long block"?? The engine plus the auto-tranny??
Well..if you look at MX-3.com-Engine Swap Info: link , you'll note that almost all KL-ZE came with auto-tranny...so you just keep your manual tranny (G25M-R), no problem!!
About the mechanic..well..I think that everyone with a good set of the MX-3 Workshop Manual can do it ...check the links at MX-3.com..there's even a step-by-step of how you can do it....
If you don't have the skills, search for a good mechanic with experience in Mazdas (from what I saw so far, it's just like replacing a blow engine, plus along the TPS cable and anothers few mods !), ok!
Hope it helps!
