Okay so I was doing some reading and apparently there are a few engines out there, that will "bolt on" to our trucks without changing trannys

I need to come up with a complete list of compatible engines, so I need your help.
the engine numbers plus the cars they came in would be great, can be ford mazda kia what eves.

I want something quiet and more reliable, and did I mention more powerful?

On a few MX6 forums , and solomiata.com, there is all kinds of info out there, and some very impressive HP numbers, videos on you tube also of dyno testing.
500+ hp in a reliable set up, nuttin wrong with that,
I can find a weber for over 600.00 shipped to me , or I could find a wrecked Kia Sportage 1995 to 2003 hmmmm.

Anyone else out there done this?

why do you want a 38? is your motor built? if not just get a 32/36. the 38 on a stock motor is going to drink gas like a v8 and not gain you anything except a higher fuel bill lol
