Hello all,
This is my first post here on the forum, so please delete or move to the appropriate category if i happen to have it in the wrong place.

Basically all I would like to know is; I have a 1990 (or mazda B2200, same thing) with a 2.2L Mazda F2SA petrol motor. My problem is the person i bought it off of never used coolant and the head corroded out, I bought it cheap with the idea of fixing it up, getting it running again, and using it for a work ute.
Problem is i cannot find another head to suit the 2.2 so my question is:

What other motor can i put into my Ford Courier with a 5 speed manual "mazda M519" gearbox without changing too much to make it go, I cannot find if the 2.6l EFI motor will bolt straight in or not, or will a 2.0L motor fit without any adaptions?
Basically im looking for a straight engine swap without changing the gearbox, I would like to know the options.

 

You might also try asking on the "Other Ford Engines" forum that is down in the engine forums section further down the page.

OR, can i use a head from a 2.0L???? because there seems to be plenty of those around but no 2.2L engines.
