KL-ZE deal?

Hi guys, I found a shop near me..... I was wondering what you think about the price?

Here is the Info :

Kl-ZE - 90-94 MX-6/Probe GT
2497cc 2.5L DOHC V6
• Horse Power: 200hp
• Torque: 160lbs@5000rpm
• Compression Ratio: 10.0
• Motor and 5-Speed Transmission


$1599.00 USD


The swap package will include the following:

Complete Motor:
-Block
-Intake Manifold
-Complete Head
-Sensors
-Exhaust Manifold
-Fuel Rail
-Injectors
-Throttle Body
-Alternator
-Starter
-Distributor
-Power Steering Pump
-Headers

5 Speed Transmission or Automatic
- With clutch components attached to the engine

Engine wiring harness(cut as it exits the car)

So? is it worth it? I don't know if the price includes the swap itself or if it's just the engine price?!?!?
Anyway, tell me what you think!

Sure that's a KL-ZE? They came from quite a few different cars besides the MX-6 and Probe, it is not an engine found in the U.S....and those years don't make any sense either. 2nd Gen mx-6s started in 92....

I don't think that price includes installation.

Yeah, that picture is a KLZE from an MS8/MX-6 in Japan. However, that manifold will run slap into your master cylinder resivoir.

It seems like every KLZE I see for sale, on eBay or elsewhere, DOES NOT have the Eunos 800 intake manifold. Are they that hard to find? I wonder if the group buy thru Sun (offered on the Probe & MX-3 forums) would be a better way to go so that you get the right manifold. Also, what tranny are you going to get from jspecauto? Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think you need one out of an MX-3, a 5-speed of course too!

You can use any G series tranny that was mated to a K series. They came in PGT's, MX-6's, and 626's, besides MX-3's here in the US.

That manifold doesn't have the curved neck like the Eunos 800/Millenia 2.5's do. It wont fit cause the space you want to put the intake manifold isn't the same shape as the intake manifold in the picture. Get it?
