I really dont know if its repairable. My engine had over 102,000 miles on it so i guess it was time for a new one anyways. i have to fix it somehow though cause i'm still paying on the damn car. How much for that motor Ozzie?

Here some pics of the engine.







Alright heres the situation. I found a motor it was out of an 04 and has 10,000 miles on it. It has no coil pack , intake manifold or TB. Will i be able to take these parts of mine and transfer them. I have an 02 eco to remind yall. And they also have a tranny from the 04. Will that fit mine as well cause mines a little shot as well. Also will my wiring harness and ecu and all that stuff just transfer over?

How did you send up sending a rod threw the oil pan?

I know the 2002 Ecos use a different type of fuel rail than the 2003 Ecotecs. I would think that you could just transfer just about all of the parts from the 02 over to the 03.


275hp & 306tq - 1999 2.2 ohv
13.2 @ 108 mph
-1996 2.4 liter + Turbo + Built motor + Torco + More boost = Lots o' Power
-2000 Mustang GT + 2004 Cobra motor, Whipple 2.3 supercharger,
built rear-end,Dodge Viper spec T56 6 speed, bolt-ons = wheelies at the track!!!!!
