My name is Anthony. I wanted to know if i can take the engine out of my 92 stanza and out it into my 89 240. A couple of people told me it can be done but i wanted to make sure.

 

I know how u feel man...i tried for 2 months to get a straight answer from shops and friends...and it was all mixed...but as far as i know it can be done...i ended up just buying another 240 and swapping the engine

 

well i have 2 240 motors but both of them have holes in the block and my tranny just went in my stanza so i wanted to just rip the engine out and switch so i can have a car to use. A lot of people told me it can be done. If you hear anything else about it please let me know cause i need a car. Thanks

 

you could but it would cost you more then an sr20 so not worth it just go find a used ka they are everywhere and cheap

 

With the right amount of fabrication, any engine can be put in there.
Is the stanza rwd or fwd? i don't remember
If its rwd I would think it wouldn't be too much trouble.
If its fwd it will depend on where the motor mounts are located on the block.

 

Is it the SE? The KA-24E is in that one, but the Stanza is FWD so I don't know what the differences there would be.

 

my stanza is an xe it is fwd. It have the 12 valve single overhead cam in it. My buddy said he could do it but i wanted to see how hard it will be because i need to get the car on the road to get to school. If anyone does know of a cheap engine i can buy please let me know because as of now i have 2 cars that do not run.

 

There's a couple of cheap ka's in the for sale section.

 

Actually I'd grab a phone and call the local salvage yard.

 

thanks for the help

I found a 93 ka24. I wanted to know if it would fit in my 89 240 but also wanted to know if it would match the wiring because i have the wiring harness out of a 90 240
