6 port in an FD???

Anyone ever put a a 2nd gen 6 port engine in an FD? I have the stock FD motor mounts, just not sure what else I need to do and what other things I need to do to mount it up. Any help would be appreciated. The 6 port seems to be longer than the 4 port 13B? Is this correct?

Thanks!!

A streetported REW will provide plenty of power. Its too much work for two little gain if you are thinking about combining the ports as the 6 port motors have motor mounts in the center iron and the FD has them in the rear iron.

You'll also run into some fun trying to make an intake manifold work. I think part of the reason for not making a turbo 6-port is the manifold has to have room for the actuators which would interfere with the turbo/turbos.

Interesting idea, but 2 more ports isn't necessarily better in this case. The two center iron ports on that motor are TINY, too.
