b3 slightly modded =)

sounds like someone is a closet honduh enthusiast.

thats how I calculate hp like a stock festiva having 63hp then modding it to start beating hondas single cams which are 82hp so my festiva should be doing a little over 82hp...

I wonder how much power this little thing makes, then.:lol:

I pulled my old mustang with a snapper lawnmower once. That means my lawnmower has MORE than 225hp and 300ft/lbs right?

B8 all the way 93...

[1993 festiva]

i was looking at that swap .. looks easy lol .. thinking of that swap cause they essy to find

[sketchman]

No scrap Escort GTs in your area? Probably better aftermarket support for the BP than the B8. I know headers are cheap from summit. VERY cheap for a ready to go unit.

[1993 festiva]

i think im going with the b8 looks like a good install ment for the festiva, easy and no motor mount modification only just drilling a hole on the bracket. also looks like a b3 just with stonger things and a little diffre tlooking lol. looks nice thinking of going with that highly

[1993 festiva]

all i find in my local junkyard are b8s with sock 1.8s and soch 1.6s . i got the bp ecus 2 of them off a b8 soch.. no luck finding the doch motors..

BP01 ECU is not a DOHC Ecu. Just an FYI, if it came with a SOHC B8 and you just plugged in a BP ECU it will not run right at all. BP01 = B8

kia sephias. escort gt's.....every jy here i see has so many bp's its insane... im gonna start looking for one.....

You might be half right on that, but I tried a B8 ECU in my BP powered festy and it ran just fine. It lacked alittle throttle response but other then that it drove just fine.
