Can I drop a JDM 13BTT in my 85'

Like the topic says can I drop a JDM 13BTT with same transmission in my 1985 RX7. Just did the purchase and the 100hp/100hp carbeurated motor isn't gonna be enough horses for me.

How hard would the install be? I know I would need custom motor mounts and such would there be some engine bay modification I need to do?

I am new to RX7's but after driving a friends GSL-SE, I fell inlove with this generation.

Any input is appreciated thanks.

This question gets asked almost every week, answer is the same,. If you have enough skills, tools, budget, time yada yada yada, it can be done. It's up to you to do the research, you won't find a spoon feed 'How To' on the forum.
