Engine options for an RX-2

Have any of you ever put a 2nd gen engine and trans into an RX-2? The car in question has a locked up 13B on an automatic trans in it.

If so, what parts need to be changed? Things like the front cover, tail shaft on trans, oil cooler, etc.......... Thanks in advance

if it has a 13b in i already.....you are half way there, everything you are going to need is there. if you were starting with a 12a and going to a 13b like i did....you would need to get a gsl-se oil pan. a front cover from a 12a and thats about it. you will need to loosen the motor mounts to allow the motor to sit in there. (motor goes farther forward) and realy thats about it. the gsl-se oil pan will not line up properly (holes anyway) but it is what will make it hapen for you. if you know the oil pan....it is almost backwards from all others. i had to sledgehamer a small bump out of the pan also....and the pick up needed to be trimed down. other than that....thats it.
