13b in a 1983/12a car
Just blew my 12a last Friday.
What is involved in dropping in a 13b ? ie; clutch,exhaust,transmission etc...
Thanks for any input.

have a nikiki carb from a 12a modified to run the higher displacement of the 13b but would have to come up with a manifold to run it. Which means for the 6 port 13b's some fabrication.
Using a stock 13b manifold with very little modification to the stock exhaust. As far as the
transmission goes or the clutch goes you do not have to modify anything. If i remember you stated you have a 83 which already has the larger clutch so the only thing you would have to change is the flywheel and either run a stock 13b flywheel or lightened steel flywheel.

need 13B exhaust manifold or header
i think the 1983 to 85 clutches fit the 13BE flywheels, but you'll have to double-check that with a search (it's been a while ... sue me! )
transmission bolts up fine
need to change mounting bracket (or if your 13B is 1986+, then you'll need to swap front covers)
that should get the engine into the car. you'll have to decide how you want to get it running - carbie or EFI.
