The guy is going to send me some more pictures of the motor. This is the first one he sent... He is going to send me the compression test for it aswell..
kl31 101 for the front and kl31 1A1 for the rears...... you never know i seen many ppl ripped off with phoney ZEs but ur lucky hes dong a compression test.. might have a bad piston or sumtin u never know haha
1992 mx3 gs Klze with Powder coated black Curved neck Manifold. Hot shot performance CAI, ford probe Gt ECU and MAF
well the motor pushed around 185-200psi compression.. which is good..now they guy doesnt know what i mean about the code on the block. he sent me this picture and he said that he sall a kl68 on it.. can anyone help me?
KL68 is a throttle body of the curved neck ZE, so perhaps you got the proper motor.
But there are also stamps on the heads, by where the runners attach. Should read KL31 101 on one head and KL31 1A1 on the other. The only DE engine that has those is the Millenia one, I think. And finally, it should have KL01 (or even KL31, if you're lucky) stamped on the cams. Oh, and pistons should be flat on top, but that's hard to take pics of.
I think that is the propper compression, is that cold or warm compression? if its cold its fine. All you need to make sure is that it does not have an EGR and pistons are flat (shine light trough the hole.. kinda tricky) oh and cams most likely are kl01 since its a curved neck.

Ya know.. whats funny is that right above this thread (at the time I am posting this) is a FAQ on how to identify a KLZE. And if its not directly above this post anymore.. look at the top of the forum

to be honest with you guys, I have prob read 75% of the post on this subject. but yes... it is just more conforting when you have someone else tell you..
although you could have checked that threda, its also good you posted pics to get others peoples opinions, you never know, how did they check compression on a motor thats out of a car, must be a tranny and starter on it and just give the starter some power.
Yeah it was hooked up to a trany, You can see it in this picture below, there is also to power linces hooked up.. block and red if you look to the very right of the picture...
