Engine swap 13B-12A!
I bought a 85' GS and it came with a 13b 6 port but it blown a seal so I swaped the 13B to its original 12A. the braket that goes on the motor mount I turn it around so it would fit the 12A, is that ok or I better change it?

not really 4 sale!
How was the 13B installed? Did they use an RB front mount bar or a GSL-SE crossmember?
If it's the former, you can just grab any stock mount bar and it'll work.
If the latter, you'll need a 12A crossmember and you can keep the mount bar you already have. Or you can do what I did: long studs on the front cover and some aluminum spacers.
