I got a BP for my 323
 

I Got a BP for me 323. I did a swap for a friend (still waiting for him to post it up)
At anyrate.
I am going to rebuild it.
I want to put in high compression pistons, from a miata
(just have to find which one and how much)
maybe a toda head gasket to bump the compression up a point and a 75 shot of nos.

I basically going to pull the entire enging apart and change all the seals and everything ..

ahh yess ,, this is where it starts

I may take the car down to Florida maybe next summer to paint it .. but will most likely chance the bumpers while I am at it ..
Bruce

yeah i dont have to go far for paint an mechanical repairs because my fathers a mechanic.. lucky me woot.. anyways.. when do you expect to have it done?

:( I need a BP(T)

Maybe I should start looking for an LX donor car

I am finally posting about the swap. The harness will be on it's way in a few days along with my LX ecu if you need it. Marcin is doing the final touches with the GTR harness and I will be on the road soon. Just gotta get a upgraded fuel pump.:(

BTW, Bruce I need the spark plug wire that goes from the center of the distributer to the ignition connection by the fuse box.

You sir have now entered the slippery slope of beater cars. "Oh, I'll just get a 323 to drive while swapping engines in my Protege. Now there's an engine swap planned for the 323. Oh, I'll just get another beater while swapping the engine in the 323...." and the saga continues. :cool:

Any bets on how many "beaters" Bruce will have by this time next year? :D

Why not do an "how-to" for the swap?

That would be cool for people like me :D

If you go to Bruce's website he has a motor swap journal on there. His site is www.protosportracing.com
