I have a 1993 GS with the 1.8L V6. However, I'm not concerned about blowing the doors off anyone, but I want to have some more power. My MX3 has it's own multimedia center built in, including a computer and the whole works. It's also Auto . Finally, to my question...Has anyone ever heard of this engine?
KF V6 2.0? Which I was told is 170HP, and will be a direct bolt fit to an MX3. Someone please let me know. If it's a decent engine, this is the type of power I am looking for. Thanks again!

Yah the KF-ZE. You can get it at http://www.corksport.com/main.php3?primNavIndex=0& for 900 canadian.
YOu could probably get a KL-ZE for about 100 or so more, and it would be faster, but suck a little more gas....if your gonna do a swap, do it KLZE style, it'll be worth it.

See, I wanted to go all the way with the KLZE as well. But, I can get the KF-ZE for around 700 dollars with shipping. If I can find a place in southern California or even Arizona that has a KLZE, I will just pick it up with my truck. You guys are the experts though, so I want your feedback on this one. Thanks again

This has been discussed thoroughly here. Search previous posts for the KF-ZE topic. One of our wonderful moderators, Barry Clark (custommx3, his site is http://www.custommx3.com or http://www.barrykclark.com -- he may have his kf swap documented on there) has a 92 GS that I bought in Birmingham, brought to memphis, and after being through 3 or 4 owners, found its way to his drive... He has a KF in it, but it failed within 10 minutes of startup due to faulty/worn rings, it appears... You can find the KL-ZE for just a few dollars more, and as far as I recall, the electronics needed (VAF, ECU, etc) are more compatible with your K8 than are the KF-ZE's... Plus, you're talking another 30 horsepower from the KL-ZE motor, and a good bit more torque... WELL worth the extra $$, as well as less headache finding replacement parts, since there's a bigger market for the KL-ZE, and since it has an American market brother (KL-DE, found in MX-6, 626, Probe GT, Millennia). Do a search, and you're SURE to find everything you need to know about this, and if all else fails, email Barry and he'll tell you evertything you never cared to know. Good luck!

I found a place in Arizona that has the KZLE. They want around 1150 with shipping. Is this a good price? They won't let me pick it up, since they have a contract with their trucking company.

That's about average. I think that's around what I payed for mine, shipped.
