SE 6 port (mazda rebuild) ---->GSL swap
OK gurus and awesome people. I have a new-from-mazda s3 13B ready for a swap into my trusty GSL.
This motor was rebuilt by a mazda dealer near selinsgrove PA some 11 years ago, and was never put into the car. The car it was destined for was in an accident and was a totaled out. The owner has held on to the motor alllll this time and finally allowed me to tow it away this afternoon. soaked her in ATF for a couple days and hand cranked it over. Compression on both rotor faces is near perfect, but the SE injection is used, and kinda shitty looking.
I need some advice on rebuilding the injection system, and swapping this bugger in my GSL. I have a full 84 SE donor with a harness and a decent engine to rob parts off of.
My donor also has 15x7 rota RB's, which Ill be swapping over too...
SO LIKE YEAH! How do I do this? Im a carb guy and have no effing idea im doing with injection. I am playing with this newish engine in the next few days to start it and all that but I wanted to know if theres any neat tricks I can do, emissions removal (even if it means aftermarket ECU) and getting more airflow into the stock restrictive looking SE intake.
THANKS A BUNCH, im excited.
Please lend me some knowledge!

If you really like carbs, then ditch the EFI and buy a Weber, Mukuni, or similar carb. A Racing Beat UIM will fit the factory LIM so you can use a carb. This is the route I'm going for my 1977 Rotary Pickup. I have a Mukini 44 and RB UIM. I've been told that the 44 is a little small for the 13B though.

I kinda want injection for this car. Im repainting it this spring and I want it to be a runner. My holleys run AWESOME when the car warms up and not in traffic, but I kinda want a fast commuter...
