I own an 85 colt/mirage w/ g15b engine. What is the most logical engine swap for this vehicle? Other parts needed for best combo? thanks

the list is limited only by two things ,your mechanical skills and the stash of cash you are willing to invest
im not sure about the 85 models but if your tranny is on the passenger side of the engine bay i think you should have most of mitsu's engones at your disposal ,check out www.mirageforums.net they have a massive knowledge base on the subject
personally i wanna put a first generartion 4G63 in my 94 mirage , basically all i need to do for this swap is remodel one engine mount
but you can go up to the 2.4 (i think its the 4G61) or you can even convert it to all wheel drive
so good luck dude
