as title states looking for a klde to swap into my mx-3, doesnt have to be today or tomorrow.
current budget allows for around 250-500 bucks and preferably as local as possible, budget will increase the longer it takes to find something decent.

still looking for an mx-6 5spd trans as well so if you have a combo all the better for me.
throw some offers out there if they are what i'm looking for i'll be all over it. i've had it with the 1.8v6 and my miserable 350-400km's i get to the the tank and would like some more passsing power too.( 600-700 km's of weekly driving).

there is no straightneck klDE.. Only the ZE has two different intakes.

IS IT IN RUNNING CONDITION? APPROX KILOMETERS? HOW MUCH YOU WANT FOR IT? IF THE PRICE IS RIGHT I WOULDNT MIND DRIVING OUT TO PICK IT UP.

The KL-DE IM should be termed a Skew-neck, since it's straight with a little kink in it. Not quite straight, but far from curved. The KLG4 is closer to a DE than a ZE though, so many people don't bother to distinguish the too. Personally, I agree with them to a point. It's not the same engine, but it's more DE than ZE.
