im thinking of putting a 89=91 13bt in my 85 gsl that i got for free it has no eng. or trans. in it right now.
just want to know a list of parts i may need or problems i might run into. if anyone has done this swap before please let me know if its worth it. |
No, no one has ever done that swap before. Lead the way!
hahaha j/k do a search, there is an actual swap section on this forum. Take a read through it and come back with some more specific questions. Welcome to nopistons. |
people have been putting the 13b into 12a cars since the 13b came out!
on a 1st gen you need to get an oil pan, front cover, racing beat makes a 12a to 13b crossmember.... |
what about engine management will the stock ecu and wiring harness from the s5 work in the fb. if it does what mods do i have to do to make it work
|
You will have to re-wire the car to accept the S5 TII harness. And yes the stock ECU will work.
Or you can spend about 1k and just put a PFC in there. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.gif |

But it will also accept a S-5 harness. You need an S-5 harness or S-6, FD ignitor, Fd ait, FD map sensor, the rest can be S-5 electronics. You have to repinn the harness a little bit, Wire in the ignitor, power up the harness yada yada. I think I was like the 2nd or 3rd guy to do it. Cheap standalone. I actually did a qucik thread on it over in the nw section when I did my swap this winter. Search for standalone for less than a grand. The power fc is a great computer, that lots of rotary shops can tune. **** I plugged in the computer, zeroed it out, started up the car, then I drove it 160 miles to portland to get tuned. Which is awesome, because I know alot of folks who have to trailer their 7's to the shop for a start up tune. |

the pfc you were using in your swap is that for a fd or fc
