HeHe depends on what parts you want, because im robbing the rear end,tranny,engine, spindles, seats, ecu, dash, hood, wheels & tires, and im cutting the power sunroof out of the car. And beside that there really isnt going to be much left of it nose and drivers fender have road rash, rear bumper is cracked in several spots. Unless someone can tell me a very good reason not to use this car as the donor, the car wont be much more then scrap metal when done.

Does anyone know how to tell what equipment came on my car? IE: How rare it is? Tell me where to look or what info you would need to determine these things.

Another option is to use a motor out of a MX-6 GT. Bolts up to the tranny. The only mods are the firewall for the dizzy and the motor mounts. A friend of mine did that a few years ago and occasionally I still see the B2000 around still.

I do mean the MX-6/Probe GT '89-'90. Not the V-6 ones which came later. Although its FWD the motor can be run in a north-south configuration ( you know that). The B2000/2200 motor looks exactly the same except the turbo. The TB wold have to be modded also. You would have to mount it on the other end of the intake manifold and cover-up the original location.

13B turbo II set up on a Mazda B2000 pick up is a huge job. I would not recommend it, but if you take on the job the results are worth while.
