Interchangeable parts
I have an engine that is using FD rotor and housings but uses FC13BT front rear and mid plate, but with an FD front cover
Can I swap the front cover without swapping anything else from the FD cover too an FC cover??
Also what LIMs will fit? Will an FD LIM fit or and xcessive lim for?
Or do I have to find a 13BT lim and UIM??
The reason I ask is that I current have a 13bt lim 4branch which has 2x 55 mm tbs on it, fuel injected.
I am wanting to get rid of this and go for as simple engine setup so I can drop it into an mx5NC
The standard manifolds are better for me for purpose of fuel lines etc using -6 braided hose.
Thanks
I can post a picture of the manifold I have now if it's helps.
Thanks for looking

the front covers should swap just fine. there may or may not be slight difference in bolt pattern, but i would need to look at my front housings or covers to be sure either way.
you will need to use the 13BT manifold as the REW block uses a completely different intake bolt pattern. i'm guessing what you're saying is you currently have an IDA manifold for the 13BT, but you want to use the OEM manifolds. it that it?

Thank you for the help. Prety sure the bolt pattern for the front cover are different but some of them line up. As the FD front cover I have in now has at least one bolt not in there. So an fc one should be just right
