And I came across an 89 Mercury Tracer. It had a DOHC in it and it looked like the engine out of the Protege. Did I just find another car to look at for an engine swap?

lol my best friend drives an old (but in damn good shape) 88 Tracer Hatchback, 5 speed, that thing is a beast. Pretty zippy little engine, even if it isnt too fast.

Guess I should've asked how much it was then. Everything was there, but the transmission.
