The FS engine does not share the same bell housing pattern as the B engines in the festiva
However the FS came with a G series transmission so using the XR2 axle set makes the swap possible without custom axles
You'll need to make the mounts, plumbing, wiring work etc for the swap
But the reason people don't swap this engine is because the BPT is the better choice anyway
1988 323 Station Wagon - KLG4 swapped
1988 323 GT - B6T Powered

1990 Festiva - First Ever Completed KLZE swap (SOLD)
If no one from the future stops you from doing it, how bad of a decision can it really be?

The F series engine won't bolt to the stock transmission unless you have a lot of money or a full service machine/fab shop at your finger tips.
However, the F swap has been done by a few people. None of them live in this country though.

I would do an F2T swap just so my license plate could read "FDUP“Last edited by Advancedynamix; 12-05-2016, 09:04 PM.Driving for me is neither a right nor a privilege.
