Hey I was thinking of doing a swap in my 86 fc the donor engine would be a 93 turbo it sound good in theory but I haven't found much info on thsi swap, How hard is this swap mechanically wise I mean i don't want to cut any of the original body

@cbdemott85rx7 You will need a GSL-SE front cover, oil pan , and the engine mounting bracket. I think a 12A engine mounting bracket could be used. Swapping the TII into the FB is not difficult. My build keeps the FC side mount for the engine. You will also need a custom trans mount, shortened TII trans (using the 12A shifter tower,and shortening the shifter shaft) With the custom trans you will need a driveshaft made. You will need a spacer between the turbo manifold and the engine.
