    the car spins through 2nd gear it needs some kind of tire to get out of the hole with.with it doing mid/high 2 sec 60' there is alot to gain there

      I do understand that, but in the end, it's still a B3, those 60' ft times are close to what my B6T ran

      1988 323 Station Wagon - KLG4 swapped
      1988 323 GT - B6T Powered
      2008 Ford Escape - Rollover Survivor

      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?

          Which could be a very long time :lol: if i were you i'd plan to swap in the B8 and have the B3 as a back up engine in case the B8 expires :lol:

            quite possible it's a good running motor.im going to focus some attention to the suspension and see if i can gain anything
