Default Re: Probe Engine Rebuild?

You should be able source an engine locally. The Probe V6 was a Mazda sourced unit and was common with the Ford Telstar & Mazda 626/MX6 of the same era.
The engine is generally identified as a KL-03. KL-ZE are a higher spec'd & tuned version that were originally only available in Japan but occasionally find there way downunder.
This is geneally true of all the mechanical items on the Probe. Only the body panels were different and truly of US origin.
I'd be checking Mazda wrecker / specialists locally before venturing overseas.
Heaps of technical data available on this US website: http://forums.probetalk.com/forumdisplay.php?f=142
