Question Engine Change

I got a old skool 1984 Ford KB Laser hatch n its my baby. But thats the problem, i dont want it to b a baby, i want it to b a beast... Im thinkin of puttin in a rotary like a 13b or even possibly a 20b.
Now i seen all rx2 n 3s with like 13 or 20b engines in em n they fly, n my bay is abt as big as those. I seen all u guys talk abt ur rides or other knowledge u got n uze know wat ur on abt, so is there any precedures u can giv me or just tell me watever i gotta do to get a 13 or 20b rotar in me old laser n get it to fly. I got a 20b manual engine lined up if i can so i need to know if its possible, cost isnt an issue.
cheers dudes.

You just answered your own question mate, if cost isn't an issue, anything is possible almost - and this would be.
I've personally never heard of it before.
