I just got a 1985 GLS and i am wondering what it takes to put the 13b REW engine into it. please help me in anyway you can. thatnks.

 

What does it take, lots of time, money and research. Out of the 4 most common 13B turbo engines, the REW is the hardest.

This question gets asked at least once a week, and it's one of the worst choices for a newbies 1st post. Before this thread gets closed, everyone is going to tell you to search, and they are spot on. There is no book, manual, kit or decent 'How TO' write up on the swap.

Welcome to the Darkside. Start with reading the FAQs and the archives, along with doing a great deal of research, saving every penny you have and start adding to your tool collection. If you do not have the tools time and talent to accomplish this swap yourself, expect to pay out 10-20k for a shop to do it for you.

In my sig line is a link to the online FSMs. download the one for your body and the REW one.
