Just wondering where you ZE owners got your motors. I found it from , for $750 shipped. Anybody ever hear of them? I've also read that there are "fake" KLZE motors, I'm guessing that means its usually a US V6 with some KLZE parts on it, and sold as a KLZE? Sorry of this is the wrong forum, just looking for info before I spend the cash...

i bought mine off ebay. Has a warranty on it and what not, but man oh man did old dominion **** it the hell up. I had to drive 4 hours to pick up my engine one week late, and couldn''t even get my residential delivery charges back... so whoever you get it through, don't get it through somebody that sends via old dominion freight lines

The picture they have for KLZE on that site actually has the IM from a KFZE (long neck, round runners). The IM on their pics for KFZE & K8ZE both look like the Millenia intake manis.

Also, when doing the swap, do I really need the tranny and all the wiring? I know I will like having the ECU. A few of the motors I saw on ebay were motor only...Last edited by KScivic; February 3, 2005, 12:50 PM.

i've gotten lied two on both of my deliberate KLZE purchases. Honestly - im with the local shop idea - but the motor isn't necessarily legal in the US so not alot of motor shops carry or have access to the ZE spec. Doing a ZE swap requires alot -- of patience, tools and money. A stock chassis with a ZE motor typically amounts to much, much trouble in the future. Clutch, mounts, bearings, etc -- and thats just chassis related. Only purchase a ZE motor if you're wanting to make the whole car a screamer, and not just the numbers on paper. Doing an engine swap is a serious work and serious expense. Be careful.93 MX6 LS/ze MTX -- Rebuilt KLZE -Fidanza, CMST2, POLY MTS, STS, 17" enkei - FOR SALE

I'm in the middle of Kansas, there are no local shops. We have a Nu Image shop in Wichita, which is where I'd possibly have the swap done. I'm wanting the swap because my Probe has 175k on it, also Probes have a bad rep in this town as being overrated, so I think 210hp would calm that. Upgrading the clutch would be a must if I were (able?) to use the stock tranny...
