B8 NA = 180 hp? :o Sweet :D

Good info... Are there any other type of classifications? e.g - How to differenciate which year / model the engines were made for?

Thanks :)

 

[ford_lover]

there is no way to differentiate the YEAR but there is a way to differentiate the MODEL


The B6 turbo engine is usually classified as just B6T

For the B8 engines, you have 2 models which is the 180 and 210 one which is usually calssified as BPT for 180 and BPD for 210

Some ppl, usually the Aussies calls the engine by the car it came in which is the Mazda GTX for the B8 180 and Mazda GTR for the B8 210. Actually, by saying GTX or GTR you can know the model of the car and thus the manufacturing year of the car/engine

hope this info helps ... :D

Can B8 drop in to a Lynx ?

can B8 manual gearbox plug and play with 1.8 auto Lynx?

 

[Khorne]

The B8 can go into virtually any local FORD and MAZDA, Just need a good mechanic to do the conversion for you...

There are a few speciments running around, like the Lynx TX3, Astina, LYNX, Telstar, 323F Lantis and ETC...
