    Mazda also made small diesel engines based on the B series block iirc. That might be a better option than the TDI.

          A mzr/duratec is also a possible swap. They used versions of the g series transmission also. Not sure if it'll physically fit in the engine bay though.

              MZR in a festy would be a beast. Even just N/A they are pretty strong.

                  For your purpose, you wouldn't want the MZR turbo engine. It would be useless on street tires. You can find a D20 for cheap from a focus. Plenty of TQ for a Festy and it's a reliable engine. My D23 Ranger is not a powerhouse as a truck, but it tugs a pretty heavy trailer around and it's a lot heavier than a Festy.

                      Dig around on club protege. I think there are some guys in Puerto Rico that are running 10s in mzr swapped 323s.
