Pics of an empty engine bay
 
As it says. I was wondering if someone could hook me up with pics of an empty engine bay. Im trying to figure out how the 13bTII fits in your guys cars. I was thinking of holding onto the engine I got and then fabing up a bracket to secure the engine to the 1st gens engine mounts as opposed to replacing the front cover. But Im not sure where the 13bTII engine is supposed to be mounted at. And Id also like to see pics of the engine bay. Thanks and please send the pics to crescentfreshms@comcast.net

You may be able to get a better idea of how to perform the conversion by looking at previous projects.

if youre planning on putting a 13bt in a 1st gen body, I am curious why dont you want to swap to the front cover? I think it would be easier than making extension style mounts from the centre plate of the 13b to the stock motor mount locations on the frame rail. Then there is the issue of the stock 86-92 oil pan of not clearing your steering rack, which the stock gslse pan will.
