1998 Hyndai Tiburon Motor Question

[chrisfennell]

Hey I did some research for about 20 mins now on these forums and couldnt exactly find the answer I was looking for. I have a 1998 Hyndai TIburon and I got it for $200.00. The Timing Belt blew out of it and I am looking to get a replacement motor.

I am looking around to find out exactly what motor I need to get for it. I translated my VIN number and the 8th digit is a F. Which tells me that it is a 1975cc DOHC 4cyl. Is that the 1.8 or the 2.0?

Also Id like to know if there are any good manuals out there that will assist me on how to do an engine swap in this car.

Id appreciate any help you guys can give! Any links or anything to where I can buy motors other than ebay...? Anything!

2.0 and I recommend the factory manual.
