I Found a 91 manual Ford Escort Gt for sale and I know I can use the tranny but I was wondering if I would be able to use the other parts on the car for my manual conversion on my 1992 SOHC mx-3 or would I have to get mx-3 parts?

you can use the tranny, axles, and head. some would say to use the block but the 91 had small journals and a different oil pump setup or something to that effect.

and what swap are you doing???? or just prepping for a swap??? either way good luck

I'm doing the BPT swap on my mx-3.

Yo! is the wiring the same for both trannies???

yeah

the escort GT is basically teh same as your mx3 in terms of the chassis and drivetrain part locations. <p>The entire shift linkage, tranny, crossmember, engine mounts, and all that stuff will be a direct swap.

you'd need the drivers side tranny mount bracket.

Thanks guys <blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><hr> <hr></blockquote> mxtreme38@yahoo.com

i to am doing the escort gt motor swap i have the whole car and was just woundering about the wiring and ecu how hard is this part of the swap i know the motor will pretty much just drop in any help with the wiring part would be great also if im correct it will bolt up to my stock tranny 93 sohc and i use my mx3 clutch and fly wheel

The wiring is fairly easy.. The harnesses are fairly similar and should run along the same paths.. they did for my swap.
