there seem to be alot of differences bettween the 80and the 82 why is that i didnt think there was much change in that time frame?


does anyone know where to find engine mounts for swap engines besides other rotories like 350's or other engines or do i have to make them ?

That last question is best asked and answered in the 'Other Engine Conversions' sub-forum. There are kits available for many different engine swaps, if that's the route you choose to go.
