Too much work. He will need a few more things to make it happen, like an ECU.

He has a new focus, so Im guessing this is just to get a second car up and running.

Ya I drove it Pretty Hard..... think I found another Spi Local, Only has 106k on it for $300

Just a small question regarding the SPI. Is the SPI engine the same as the engine as the 1.9 in the 95 Escort? I got 300,000 Kms out of an Escort engine before I made a mistake and then had to get the engine replaced :(
