Secondly I think the comment about Ford engines in mazda's is somewhat true because dont the first gen mx-6's use ford engines? Lastly how the hell do you gain hp by not having a/c?</STRONG><HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>ALL MX-6s use MAZDA engines. The F2T, the F2, the FS, and the KL depending on model and year.<P>Secondly, A/C compressors are driven by an accesory belt. This takes "energy" to spin, and therefore robs a bit from the engine. Same idea shows how underdrive pullies work to increase power.

I believe, but do not know if they let ford build any of the KLs.
