Nominal Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 Compliments - good to see another wagon project, and on turbos too. Looks like it shouldn't be too much work to get it on the road eh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yoeddynz Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 More Ropey wagons on turbos. This is the forum that just keeps on giving Plus 1 for mazda v6 repower. There could be a collective. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yoeddynz Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 No but there's enough of us who've done it to get the required measurements /info off. But as you know it's still not a straight forward swap. But it is a choice one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corbie Posted August 1, 2018 Author Share Posted August 1, 2018 I just need a gearbag to go in the car I have the motor, should probably look to see if the diff will need an upgrade too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Transom Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 Mx5 box or early rx7 is the closest fit for kl v6 still need adapter kl v6 all the things ... can get ford rocker cover for them or Barra turbo for modern version of the cortina 4.1 straight 6 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
63Ragtop Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 Cool man, even a non turbo barra would make it shift! Looking forward to updates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mx5 box with rx7 bellhousing so no need to space the flywheel back. Will need to modify the starter motor mounting face on bellhousing forwards though. None of it is that hard though. Just time.
