20b conversion
 
How much trouble and money will it take to put a 20b into a 1987 turbo 2. or will it be cheaper and better if it was rebuilt. the engine has 140k on it. Thanx for your info.

Simply put, Search. there is a 20b section of the forum with all the details and all of that stuff. you're looking at the VERY VERY least 12 grand if you do everything yourself and get super good deals on everything.

full cosmo 20b front clip $4000shipped *my price :-D, 20b FC mounts $350. I'm pretty sure you can get it in the FC and running for less than $6500.

LOL..... give it a shot. People need to educate themselves before they make claims like this.

The people who HAVE DONE THE SWAP say that a bare minimum of 10-12k if you do everything yourself, and taking between 1-3 years to complete.

Take it to a rotary specialty performance shop..... when they are running a 20B special you will be out 35-40 GRAND, and have to wait 3 months to a year for it to be finished.

If you do that for $6,500, I'll buy that car from you for that much.
