is this engine im pickin up friday(dirt cheap)
thats the straight neck ze right....
and the block should be stamped on the front... right ??
any help on makin sure im gettin a good ZE
i looked through the forums... found lots of good info
just wondering what u guys think of the engine !!
here are some specs on it !!
KLZE long neck put in about 60-70K ago, has noisy lifters,
KL07 ECU Chipped with KL31 EPROM, did this myself, works good. ANd the mx3 MAF.
Car has HEI mod as the disty is a typical mazda pice of crap, runs well with the HEI though, but the wires are getting rough.
SS autochrome Stainless Headers, these are the pacesetter style ones so they perform better, These i had to cut and modify to actually fit since they were so poorly bent from the "factory". But they sound nice and perform aswell as pacesetters without rusting and they dont have the rasp.
CLUTCHMASTER stage 1 clutch with 9LB Aluminum flywheel.
Let me know what ya think
good project motor !!!
