By which motor I mean, 1st gen or 2nd gen since you said 13b I'm guessing non turbo. Depending on when it was made if I remember right 1st gen made around 135hp, while 2nd gen had 145 and 160 depending on year. So you could have a nice little bump in power or almost double depending on which motor the truck had originally. If you think you might add a turbo later just go ahead and start with a 3rd gen 13B-REW and get 255hp right out the gate which is almost triple if you had the small motor and just drive it.
Just seen the pictures, so middle motor mount equals 2nd gen 13b if you didn't know already.

i have a second gen na but I知 going to be running a blow through turbo on it for now
Well if you're going to turbo the NA, my best advice is head over to the 2nd gen area and read everything you can from Aaron Cake on the subject. He is probably one of the most knowledgable people on the subject and has a ton of helpful hint and tips if I remember correctly.

I知 in Raleigh. Just got my FD this year. My build thread is here https://www.rx7club.com/build-thread...1127397/page4/
I drive my FD as much as I can and just about any time I need to run out to Greensboro or Winston Salem. Only real time it's been down since the rebuild last year was do to clutch hydraulics going out and that was only 2-3 weeks do to rain.
