cosmo engine can fit in FD?

I got blown blown coolant O-ring so I'm looking for the new engine.and found I can get complet cosmo 13b-re
engine for good price.
I know I better get my engine rebuilt but I just don't have time.only I can get is 2 days.

I searched but nobody has straight answer.
Is it possible If I use alots of stuff from my old engine?

or it's impossible without making custom engine mount.

I know it has smaller turbos but will it run 12psi without problem?

If it's nearly impossible then I have to look for FD engine.

thanks.

The mounts are apparently different so you'll need to do some work to get it in there.
