Short/longblock, 2g FWD transmission.

Use a 1g harness and ecu in the colt. 2g stuff is a pain. I have done a few swaps alway use 1g stuff.

Can you still use a 2g engine then? Because I was under the impression you could.

Yes you can use a 2G

Yep just use all 1g sensors on it. You need to use the 2g engine block mount and alum rubber upper engine mount to get it to sit level in a csm

Hmmm.. I'm not sure on which engine I'd want to go with then. Just considering I'd have to swap all of the sensors anyways.

Gotta love a flip-flopper!

Mods chime in if I am completely off base here:

DSMINMN.....Judging from this thread alone it appears that you are not that far along with collecting parts for your project.

I would suggest looking for a whole running car, and swapping it into the colt, removes a lot of "?"s and compatibility issues that you *ahem* WILL run into.

I've seen beatup-rusty DSM's go for <$1000

but I've only been doing this since 2002, what do i know.

Lol Of course I am not far in collecting parts for my project. That is why I am starting here. You have to start somewhere.

Edit: Been doing some looking online, and I might have found another 1.5L locally. It might be a long shot but if it works it works.
