Mercury

Can someone tell me if a majority of the engine parts from a 1998 tracer will fit a 1998 escort zx2? we have the opportunity to buy a wrecked tracer for a good price and the engine is in great condition in the wrecked vehicle. we are looking to extract things like the starter, the air conditioning system, possibly the catalytic converter, door lock actuators, and possibly other components. i have not found a decent resource on the web at this point that can tell me if the engine components would be interchangeable with the two engines.thanks for any helpful replies.the engine in the 1998 escort has the zx2 motor. i am not sure about the tracer as it is not in a salvage yard and someone is selling it directly.

Check with your local auto wrecking yard they have a book on switch outs. i need more information though you have not stated the engine size for either car .
