Re: 2.5L Avenger Engine into a 1990 Eclipse?

How much trouble would it be to swap the 2.5L into the Eclipse, and would the manual tranny behind the 1.8 hold up to the 2.5?
Anything can be swapped in if you have the money to do it. Is it a direct swap? No. Take a lot of custom fabrication, wiring, ECU, tranny, and drivetrain to get this all together. No worth it. Sell the Avenger and the 1.8 and get something worthwhile. That will be your best bet.
