Motor/Trans Swap

[BIGSHOMIKE]

If you had a 95 ATX and a 92 MTX, how hard would it be to swap the motors/trans/exauhst? After searching it looks like the only problem would be the center consoles for the shift knobs.Both cars are in good shape, running, would be keeping/driving both cars.

Thanks

I don't get it? How do you swap and keep them both running? Sounds complicated.

It would be esiar than an ATX to MTX conversion wouldn't it? because you can move the whole drive train and swap subframes? I probably won't even try it was just an idea because my ATX is red and my new MTX is white and I wan't a red MTX, I was just searching engine swap and with both being gen 2's I thought it would work. Plus then I'd have the only 92 ATX.

Since I just completed making an ATX into an MTX by swaping entire subframes, then a month later switching to the 3.2 w/3.0 cams, I'd have to say it is not that hard if you have the knowledge, time, experience working on cars. If not do not try it, it takes a lot more time than you might think. It is easier to swap the whole assy's though. So it is possible, but not an easy 3 day task. Ask some of the people who have seen the ever changing view at my garage. Craig

paint your MTX. Lot easier.
