You don't want an '87 626, they're not the same car (and no turbo available anyhow)

Not many Probe/MX-6/626 guys here unfortunately.

I have a friend with a 91 mx6 v6 engine with a blown head gasket. He says it will run good the way it is, you just have to add water. If you are interested I will see how much he wants for it.

I wouldn't fucking drive with a blown head gasket other shit could possibly get fucked up. I was on I-75 driving to Tampa one weekend and a head gasket blew on my friends grand am after I fixed the head gasket i started the motor and there was a clicking noise my boys dad is a mechanic he looked at it and he said it cracked the crank shaft which is not common but other shit can occur when a head gasket is fucked up. you have to remember liquids do not compress as well as gases so when your trying to force a piston up and there is water in there after a certain point the piston cant go up any farther so it breaks shit

you were talking about it running fine just add water read the previous fucking post you put up douchebag! Thats y I posted what I did. One day you'll grow the fuck up. All you do is get on here and try to make people look retarded but in the end you just an immature dumb fuck!

"He says it will run good the way it is, you just have to add water." What the hell does that sound like to everyone else. Maybe ummmmm you can run the engine just continue to add water

The head gasket isn't an issue at all.

Wrong motor for the car. No 1st gen MX-6's had V6's. So it'd be a helluva lot of customization to make it fit, if it ever would.

You want a F2 or an F2T. Or, if you're lucky and have a few thousand more to spend, get the jspec motor.

AND GO TO MX-6.COM!

And like I said, you can't just drop a turbo motor in your n/a chassis. You need the transmission, and that means different axles, and different hubs. For the turbo, you would need the ECU related stuff as well. It's not as simple as throwing a turbo on a n/a motor, nor dropping a turbo motor in.

The n/a motor and turbo motor are generally regarded as the same motor, apart from compression, and I believe the connecting rods on the turbo are better. Dunno, no big deal if you change the pistons, get the rods too I guess. Sure you could turbo the n/a, but then you can't boost as much.
