CAS for FE swap.
 

Hello everyone, I am here for some help. I own a 90 Probe GT that I am swaping an FE-DOHC engine into and am running MSnS. I was wondering which year and model would have the CAS that fits into the FE with 4 outer windows and the single inner window? Thank you in advance, Nick

I have been using MSnS for over two years now in the probe and I love it. I ran it on the stock Probe GT (turbo) engine (F2T) and made 325hp and 350ft lbs:

I now have decided to go with the FE, much better flow and overall much stronger and a GT35r ball bearing turbo. Here are some pics of my progress:

Sorry for the long post, but I figured I would introduce myself as well. It's not a Miata, but it is a Mazda :) Thanks for looking, Nick

Damn, cleanest probe i've ever seen.

yeah looks pretty good for an ---- probe :gay:

theres a guy on here running an FE in his miata on an ECU designed for a miata. not sure how he did it but he could answer you. m2cupcar

you need a 1.6L optical cas that you use to mod the stock fe3 optical plate. I am getting ready to do the same mod for the fe3 im building for my miata but I'm having trouble finding an optical cas. The problem is that there is a magnetic version and a optical version. I have had something posted in the wtb section here for around 2 weeks now and havent gotten anything.

I overheard Rob explain it once, but I had too much Warsteiner in me to retain. I want to say that his FE is driven off a mechanical distributor, so he rigged a sensor to monitor distributor revolutions...

Hopefully he'll chime in.

http://members.aol.com/solomiata/FE3.html that explains the whole thing to make it work in a miata.

You need to use the cam drive and housing of the FE dizzy and the rest of the Miata CAS with the cap. Optical CAS is 90-92. Once you take them both apart it makes perfect sense. :D You'll be making far more power with much less boost once this is together!

Thank you very much for the help! Nick
