1992 Mustang 2.3 .... HELP finding parts?

[lil86hatch]

I recently just bought a 1992 mustang 2.3 auto with 130,xxx miles for 400$ overall good shape runs good needs a transmission , exhaust , & a starter (make alot of noises). So my question's are what years use same parts for each?

What year cars & trucks with 2.3 use same Starter , Exhaust & Transmission (auto) ?

this is a low cost cheap project to get up and going so going to be using used parts for the most part.

Will post pics later.

Is it a turbo car???

I know its not a four eye ,but in my local search for 87-93 ,or even 79-93 mustang with 2.3s no luck. So I figured I would come here for help with opening my search guessing there alot more 2.3s cars that use the same parts.

Thanks in advance for all the help.

No just n/a ....

The mods will probably move this... Pretty sure there's a non-four eye board here. There's also a naturally aspirated 2.3 board.

I thought about that but being that my question could be helpful to all 2.3 guys it would be ok?

I bought my starter at NAPA for about $52 plus $17 core charge. For that cost, plus you get a warranty, you might consider buying new, if it's in your budget.

the trans should be the same from 89-93 as long as it has the three pin connector coming out of the trans pan for the overdrive and lockup torque converter and starter is 2.3 91-92 mustang,ranger exhaust is 87-93

You can buy parts on rockauto.com, which is generally cheaper than going to a parts house. Transmission should be the same in 5.0 and 2.3 cars, so hitting wrecking yards or craigslist for transmissions from 89-93, if you don't see anything for sale on craigslist you could put up a wanted ad for a trans and see what you get.

Some people put Flowmasters on their 2.3s and they sound decent, if you wanted a new muffler.

trans is different between 4 cyl and v8
