I've got alot of spare 1.8 engine parts I need to get rid of in the next few weeks. Here are the first few items:

1.8 tan top injectors - 1 set of 4 left - $25 shipped

1.8 3-wire coilpack from my 96 with 142,000 miles - $40 shipped I removed this and replaced with Coil on plugs after I turbocharged my Miata because of a miss I would get around 5psi of boost. Should work great below 5psi or for an NA car. 1.8 3-wire coilpack from 97 Miata rearended with 140,000 miles - $40 shipped

1.8 BP engine from 93 Escort with 72k miles (SAME engine -block and head- as Miata 1.8)- $100 picked up from Jax, Fl. 32259 Bought from used engine supplier 4 weeks ago to swap into my 96 Miata, but then I came across a great deal on a 97 engine complete that I bought instead so this needs to go. I tore it down to the longblock to swap over my Miata stuff, but I've got all the Escort bits in a container if you want them - no extra charge.

1.8 BP engine from my 96 Miata with 142,000 miles - $175 picked up from Jax, Fl. 32259 Started to smoke from the tailpipe because of oil in cylinders 2 or 3. Compression still tests great so it's probably the oil control rings. Might be an easy fix, might not. Includes intake manifold, exhaust manifold, brand new water pump/timing belt (400 miles), black VHT wrinkle valve cover shown has been swapped over to my new engine (comes with typical grey one), tapped oil pan. No injectors, no flywheel, no coils, but I've got those separate if you want them. Buy this and the Escort engine for $250 and have everything you need for a 1.8 swap.

All prices OBO. If nobody wants the engines, I will certainly sell parts off them, but I want to try and get rid of the entire engines first.

GAH NO MONEY! I would love to drop that 1.8 into my protege. Ce la vie.

Added a few things and lowered the price on the Escort engine. My garage is filling up with engines and these need to go.

Still got this stuff. Escort BP engine now $125. I really want to get it out of my garage. This is the same engine (block and head) as the Miata 1.8 so it would make for a cheap replacement engine.

Also, the 1.8 injectors are now $25 shipped per set.

BP engine from Escort $100 picked up. BP engine from Miata $175. Come get them both for $250!

1 set of 1.8 injectors left. $25 shipped.
