First Ford I have ever owned, and I think I wasted my money, but to get back to the topic, its a 94 aspire 1.3 auto. what I need to know is what other years or other moters will be a direct bolt in replacment for the stock motor? Any help will be apprecitated, thank you

i know you said you dont need the info anymore, but anyone else looking....
a mazda 323 engine will fit and also a 626 engine. I'm not sure which years, but the engines for the aspire and 323 are basically the same (since the aspire engines were made by mazda under the ford licence...and if I'm not mistaken, the bodies were made by Kia under Ford licencing). With some modification, the larger 626 engine will fit in, but I'm not sure what to do about the drivetrain (i'm assuming it would be wise to swap the 636 tranny with it).
I had a friend with a mazda 323 and the engines were pretty much identical (except he had power steering and my ford didnt).
I no longer have my Aspire...but I really miss it. That was a really fun car!
Hope this helps someone.

thanks for posting , hope it will help someone. As far as the parts i had for sale all have be sold (i end up keeping most of them ) as i bought another 94 aspire. Hopefully this one wont be blown off the road. Ice + wind storm , not a good combo in such a little car.
