I have done quite a few of those swaps myself. I had an '80 with a 12a. I'm currently looking for one so I can do a turbo.



P.S. I have pics but I'll to scan them since I don't have them on cd

what about dropping a 13B into an 1986 323?? Has anyone heard of anyone who has done this before?? I'm planning on doing it myself once I rebuild the 13B.

Isn't the '86 323 FWD? or are you talking about the wagon? I've seen a FWD wagon with a 13B swap on this site

There is a guy in joplin that has a primered glc by the way it sounded it was a swap, but when i called some yards to get a body i was told all (glc's)

were fwd so i didnt know if the rx 7 would be a bolt in or what so i got to thinkin what would be the worst car to get beat by 1. Pinto- did that already 2.3 with wbers and the juice 2. CHEVETTE and that is what im doin!

its already rwd and everyone agrees in this town (aurora, mo. pop. 5000 beer swilling toothless camaro drivin rednecks) that they cant be fast!!!!

heheheh poor bastards they just dont know do they!

I was wondering if anyone has done the swap into the RWD version?I was thinking with thier light wieght they would make a prime candidate for a 13b swap(13b-re if I had the money).Has this been done before.From what I've read about them the bolt pattern on them is the same 4x110 pattern as the non-SE has.Just curious.



Thanx
do you happen to know what year the rwd glc was i was told none were!

info would be great then i wouldnt have to finish the chevette conversion!
