Re: Bpt swap questions
Keep your Tranny, Axles & radiator. No Custom Axles needed.
If you decided to upgrade to a tranny from the Protege LX-(which you SHOULD)- then you would need to get Axles & jack-shaft for the LX.
A great list of parts for this swap as well as some great how to points can be found here:

As to WHERE to buy it-- thats up to you.

Re: Bpt swap questions
once again perry, i'm here to help you out.
a little bit of advice, figure out what you're going to do about fuel control before you even start.(haltech, etc.)

Re: Bpt swap questions
yea the haltech will probably cost more than your motor, which isnt a good thing if you only need a daily driver. I've heard good things about the apexi safc, you can get settings from someone else on the board i recall having them. Peace
