20b conversion Information needed
My sons engine blew and I have a new 20b ready to install but have no clue as to what else is required for the install. I know new mounts are needed but beyond that stuff like computer, injection, moving the rad forward a bit etc. I would appreciate any information or like to text / pic site would be nice.

You will find better info in the 20B Forum here:

So you actually bought a 20B to put into an FD, but you didn't do any research at all on what is required to drop it in?
Hmmm.... I think you'll be in for a surprise when you find out. There is a 20B forum on this site (under rotary performance I think). Check that out for more. This topic has been cover many many times.

It isn't a "drop in" conversion. there is a lot of fabrication involved. You need a new subframe and engine management system just to name a couple of larger items. It isn't impossible to do at home but it is a hell of a job. Good luck
Just to let you know what you are in for, Pettit charges $35,000 for this conversion.....which involves relocating the steering rack or modifying the firewall, trans tunnel, and interior console.
