wandering around the j/y

[gothguydante]

so i was wondering around when i found some things i wanted man i want that spectrum yesterday it had the wheels and other things also i took some pics of some engins i found not sure if they all work with the swap..

Okay, these are the B6 SOHC's from the BF323...

The silver Tracer, and red 323 both will have the same engine. And it's a common swap into Festiva's. About as plug n' play as you can get.











These engines are for the BG323/Protege. The hatchback will have the 1.6 SOHC, and the sedans will have the 1.8 SOHC. If you're going to use the 1.8 SOHC, it'd be more worth your time to put the BP DOHC engine in. The 16 valve engines should be either California spec BG323 hatchback engines, or from the MX3.







The other cars are Ford Escort 1.9's and DSM 2.0's and that random Tercel. They will be harder to swap, but if you have the money and fabrication skills, then you can put any engine in a Festiva...

If you're just looking for a little more power, and easy to swap, I'd suggest using one of the BF323 engines. Just make sure you find a clean, well maintained engine if possible.

i took the ford escort not realizing that it was the 1.9 till i got home.. and the tercel was just cause i heard someone talking about one and i didn't know what but i figured if they needed something then they will see it and tell me... but i want the spectrum it's nice... also i took a pic of a laser cause i heard somewhere that they fit.. but i'm not sure..

All of those were in the same yard at the same TIME??? Shezz man, you live in mod heaven.

[festyxfi]

That's one well-stocked junk yard!

[gothguydante]

it's the best yard ever... kinda thats the old yard we have 2 by the owned by the same person one has older stuff and the other has newer stuff.. sometimes you find some old ones at the other yard but i like the older yard better.. yes it's heavan and there is lots more................ if you haven't notice go there at least 3 times a week and just walk around looking at stuff... thinking about what i want to do....

great finds. close your eyes and just put your finger one one picture and do it. even a 1.6 will make you happy, less power than other options but an 8 hours or less turnaround.

[gothguydante]

well i was wanting the best of the best that will fit... with minimal to moderate modding..

[festivaWES]

Go with the 1.8 sohc..a little more work than the 1.6 sohc but far worth it. And yes the 1.8 dohc would be even better, and about the same amount of swap time.

thats not even getting into whats at my yard i prolly could walk around taking video and every 20 sec at most you would see something worth raising a brow..
