I have an FC and plan to put an FD 13b-tt in the FC. I know that people do this but my question is do I have to swap motor mounts? Any recommendations on some good motor mounts for the swap? Plan on doing the swap around Feb or March and I am just trying to get everything in order.

Okay I did read the FAQs about the motor swap BUT it said nothing about the 13b-tt only the 13b-rew. Saying that it could not be done due to the motor mounts being in different locations. So is that the same with the 93-95 13b-tt or the 90-93 13b-re twin turbo? Please someone give me some insight on wether or not this can be done and if I can use certain motor mounts or if I have to have some custom made etc. Thanks.

The BREW is the twin turbo engine from the 3rd Gen.

There are plenty that have done this, do a search. Oh, and FYI, this is the NON rotary engine swap area...

Okay so that helps out a little bit. thanks digitalsolo

Should I just do a TurboII swap? And motor mounts are pretty much the only question I have about all those motors. Is it rediculously expensive to put a bre or b-tt in an fc? and do I have to get custom made mounts or are there somewhere where mounts are already made that I can just order? I have been lookin for this information for a while and have not come a cross it yet. Thanks

Is there anyway to get this post moved to where it is suppose to be? Sorry its in the wrong location.
