Converting the engine.

So the story goes like this. I have the opportunity to buy an N/A 13b motor complete and running with the tranny for $200. I'd like to put it in my project car this coming winter but before i do I'd like to convert the 13b to a 13b-rew. I was wondering what it is i need to do to do this conversion or if its even possible. I'm new to the site still and i'm having trouble locating a previous thread that addresses my question so an answer or a link to the thread im looking for would be helpful. Thanks guys.

I dont understand your question though, you are going to swap in a NA 13b, but first you want to swap a 13brew?

Doesn't work like that, as john ward said above they are completely different engines. You don't just bolt on some parts to "convert" an na 13b into a 13b-rew.
