Hi all,
I have a KF Laser fitted with the 16V Carby 1.6 and Auto, (I believe is a B6-2E ??). The motor in it had punched a hole in the block so it needs replacing. A friend of mine had one sitting around so i planned to use this, except it only turns over half way and stops...Think it's slipped a bearing or ring (looked into it). Now I am looking at getting a 1.6 carby from an KC-KE (believe it is the B6??) and it comes with auto attached. But I would like to use my Auto if possible, Am I assuming right that both motors been a B6 that the block is the same and will bolt up?? The other thnig I would like to do is fit the 16Valve head of the KF motor If that will fit the older block Thanks heaps Dave |

I'm pretty sure the bottom ends are the same, it's just the head that's different, but knowing Mazda I wouldn't be surprised if a bolt is moved 3mm to the left, or it's threaded the wrong way somewhere causing the whole thing to be useless.
Where abouts are you? I'll have a B6-2E pulled from my (running nicely) KH shortly (turbo BP conversion), but I'm in Adelaide |
