Im wondering the same thing also. I have a bunch to spare as i know they dont handle the power the TII trannys. It would be nice if the TII engine bolts right up and works.

It will bolt up without a problem. All you need is the T2 rear counter-weight and a non-turbo lightened flywheel and matching clutch.

yea, you need a TII Auto Rear Counter Weight, and an Aftermarket Flywheel that can fit N/A 13b and N/A 12a

That's what I got on my turbo motor right now. Can't wait to blow the tranny up so I can convert to a TII tranny!!

I've been running a 12A tranny behind my 13B for as long as I've had it. That includes two days of many laps around www.wakefieldpark.com.au without any troubles.

Don't get me wrong... If and when it blows i'll be putting in a TII tranny.

No, the turbo clutch and flywheel are larger. You need to use an n/a aftermarket flywheel and matching clutch.
