I think I found it...

how was the engine?
-
According to what I'm reading, the DOHC you're talking about was the 3.0L V6 OHV 12V FI Engine. The other engine was a 2.2L I4 SOHC 12V FI Engine in both N/A and turbo form. There were no major driveline changes until 93.

matt fauls was an fe3 which is a 2.0l 16v DOHC engine that is found in euro and japanese spec mx6, 626, and capplea cars
eric schafer has the sohc 2.2 12v engine which is stock in 90-92gt's
and mx6 and probes are going to be identical for the 1st and second gens which is the 89-97's -

I did buy the probe. I haven't read any of these comments before buying it. I talked to Brandon Vanyo with the MX6 and he drove it. We decided that the car itself was worth what I payed. I ended up paying 450 for it. I think ive figured out the ignition problem. If it is WAY to expensive to pay 450 dollars for that car, I guess i'm an idiot. I believe the tranny can be found around here for less than 300 dollars. From what I'm told, Highway 75 has about 10 1st gen probes with various problems. I Figure I buy a 2.2 manual N/a and get the new tranny and varios body pieces. As for the work, All of Brandon's MX-6 work has been done by himself and his friend Brian in Bria'ns shop out in Chafee. There, they have tools to do tranny/Engine swaps and yes Jim, I can put in a clutch myself! It holds boost and all the gauges seem to work. Brakes aren't horrible but definitly need new pads all around. A new clutch will be 200-250 depending on what kind I buy. I hope to pull the radiator out of the extra I buy. So to get it back to stock, depending on the price of a car, will be around 700-800 dollars. Like I said before, this will be a track car, not a street car. I could give a shit less about the body. It will be stored and worked on all winter. I hope to have a well running-high thirteen second car by the time it is all said and done. Nick, I was kidding on the phone, 12 seconds? maybe with RAIDER behind me, pushing me with the procharged beast! I'm asking for a BOV and a clutch for christmas. Gotta love the parents! Any comments are welcome but keep the bashing to a minimal.

yeah, lets start a betting pool saying you dont hit 12's for first track day.
