Would be better to post this in the other rotary section, as there are folks that may have a clue to help you there.

If you wait I'm sure the mods will move this anyway.

and also ... when you ask in the Other Rotary section, be sure to ask specific questions. as you have it stated above, the only response you're likely to get are links which may or may not include information to get the motor running in that chassis.

The question has been asked before. I know that there is a AE86 with a 13b turbo, so no doubt that you can get a 12a into one.

the OEM engine was longitudinal. if you dont change the tranny you wont need a new driveshaft.

the 12A is very easy to mount on anything, because it mounts from the front cover.

you should be worried about the oil pan clearing the steering box
