A friend of mine has a sohc 1.6 mx-3. He wants me to put a different engine in it. I can get a bp protege engine fairly cheap. <BR>What parts do I need to put this motor in his car? Also does anyone know the difference in power ond torque?<P>Thanks.

I have a SOHC as well and am opting to go turbo with a BPT.
