FD3S motor in FC3S (Did Search)

What would it take to fit the motor from the 3rd gen into a 2nd gen. I know about the mtotor mounts being deifferent. Who sells a kit to mount this motor inside the 2nd. What other modifications would be needed? Will be converting to single turbo and different ECU (Haltech, Mocrotech, etc). Appreciate any advice.

If you are going to fit a 13b-Rew to a T2 then i would use a 13b-re or even a stock T2 center plate and your mount problem is sorted.

The Manifolds are very simalar between the 13-bt and 13b-rew single turbo kits so i would say with a bit of a Mod to the Down pipe you should'nt have a problem there ether.

as for EMS i am a Microtech man and would only recomend them. somthing like a Ltx8 would be good. The only problem with Microtechs is untill recently they did'nt have Omp Drivers.

That means I'd have to break to motor apart and put an intermediate housing in. Too much work, I'd rather use a mounting kit if it exists.

I would be suprised if there is a Kit as most people use the 13b-RE as it has Bigger inlet runners and they have very simalar Mounts to the stock T2 engine.

If you dont mind me asking why are you useing a Fd engine? is it just you have one Knocking around?
