I did a search and didn't find too much about 13brew swaps. Can someone point me in the right direction on mounting hardware? I just got a 13brew and plan on building from bottom up and then dropping into an FC for a company car. Also, some input if you have any

The whole car will be stripped, caged, painted and then reassembled w/ only bare necessities. 10sec car for sure!!

www.fc3s.org sells the engine mounting kit.

the FC3S.org kit is NOT for the REW its for the 13B-RE and 20-B engines... A lot of guys are getting that confused and are going to have one hell of a shock when they spend 250 bucks on mounts that will work for the 13b-REW...

the REW's mounts are on the REAR housing.... The RE's mounts are on the Middle housing like the FC motors, but have a different bolt pattern for the brackets...

If you are going to put an REW into an FC, your are going to have to fabricate your own mounts, or, some guys claim that you can drill and tap the REW center housing to accept the FC mounting brackets and use the FC oil pan and front cover..... I'm researching this option right now.

The mounts that fc3s sells it's for 13B-RE/20B. Nobody makes mounts to swap 13B-REW into a FC.

you are wrong, Jims5443 has a 13Brew in his FC. 400 HP to the grounf DOCUMENTED. I am not sure whicj shop fabbed his mounts, may have been Petit

I can't figure out why people want to swap a motor that is basicly the same as the S5 TII motor that doesn't fit into the FC. Just buy a S5 motor.

I'm confused, who's wrong?

Your best bet is to fab up your own mounts, unless you're just confused and have a 13B-RE and not a 13B-REW.

Parastie

Because it's not the same, the 13B-REW has larger stock ports.

Kingofl337

Why couldn't this be done with a S5 TII motor?


Why not use N/A 6-port irons those must have bigger intake ports then the REW. Plus you get a fresh motor,

Parastie

Because you have the split port, which would not flow as well as one single port. You can actually remove the split from the secondary port, but that would be too much for most uses.
