Shouldn't see a problem with it... Just double check your tranny bolt holes and engine mounts. Try stuffing a built 3.0 out of a 91 caravan in a 85 laser... Gonna make for an interesting project.

If it doesn't just drop in it should only take minor modifications. These cars use basically the same chassis/drivetrain combo. Try the 4 cyl. to 6 cyl. swap... Looking at a fun time with that one!

Wiring up the electronics is going to be a BITCH.... Major wiring changes between 86/87 and 93

I just put a 93 2.5 in to my 87.I had to change the carb and the alternator belt.Other than that it was pretty much plug and play.
