I need some advice on engine swap

Post by mazdaguy1138 »

I curently have a 94 RS DOHC and I would like to swap the 1.6 with a KLZE. Has anybody done this before, is it too much trouble, or should I just go ahead and buy a GS.

It is easier to go RS = BP(T) and GS K(L)-(ZE/03/KF)

Keep the RS, and get a BPT. They cost the same as a KLZE, plus your RS is lighter, so it'll be faster than a ZE GS.
