Ok so I found it. A 6 bolt 4g63t from a 91 laser. It needs to be rebuilt, but the block is good, and so is the head. I spent 6 hours today with my girl frind, (who by the way was awesome) pulling a motor from a rolled car. The cam gears were both busted from the roll over so I had to check every part of the motor befor bringing it home. Well all is good. This is going to be a rushed buid so I will be taking a lot of pics along the way. Thanks ahead of time to everyone for your help and knowlage. |

With a lot of crap on my head about this swap I ask, wiring? I was thinking about taking the wire harness from the laser I got the motor from, along with the ecu pin out, and a diagram of the whole thing, along with a diagram of the colt, and just grafting the 2 together. I'm hoping it will make life much easyer when wiring the whole car up. Any thoughts. |

The ECu has nothing to do with the gauges,,, for the gauges the wiring is routed different,, the only gauge that works with the ECU is the turbo gauge |

Ok now that I'm pulling more and more out I'm finding that to be more true. There's basicly 2 sepret harnesses then, there are a few things that ran through my body harness on the colt like the o2 sensor but that no longer looks to be an issue. I guess I was stressed for no reason. Well another question, does anyone know what the stock clearinces for this motor are, like the cylinders, the crank. I talked to a budy of mine who runs a shop and he said that if there is no sighns of wear and the cylinders and the crank are withen the oe clearences then I could getaway with just a hone on my block instead of a bore. What does every one think. Oh and sorry about the spelling, my week point... thanks, benjamin |

If your mirage has a manual tranny no need to do anything, if your mirage came with automatic tranny you will need a pedal bundle form another 88 Or 89-92, also de clutch pump |

i dont,my car was cable only no hydro. i need to add a hydro clutch. i dont know if the 88 turbo colts had a hydro clutch or not. my 88 is not a turbo colt it was a 1.5 with a 4 speed. i had a 86 sedan turbo that had some real body and chasy issues so i swapped it all in. i had it for the most part done, drove it around the block a few times it worked well. but i had money, and time so now i want more.... thats why the swap. but i need the hydro clutch, how do i do it cheap. or can i use the turbo non hydro tranny i have from a 88... if it will work id like be willing to do that now. save a little money till i go back to work... |
