4 coils????On the GLC????Now thats Direct Fire. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

with 4 coils you have to use 4 ignitors then don't you????That would make alot of heat

No ignitors are used on this one. Four coils .....1 per spark plug. The crank angle sensor is used from the '86 and up 13B and 2 MSD 6A's.

i may be doing one of these in the near future. i already have a motor in mind and an RX3 crossmember. after that this swap is cake.

can't you use the Rx7 crossmember????Why the rx3 one??

As far as I know the RX-3 one bolts right in. Also you would need a Rx-2 engine bracket. The Rx-7 one is offset whereas the Rx-2's equal.

So Rx3 crossmember with a Rx2 bracket.That does sound easy enough.

Is the Rx2 bracket modifyable enough to make the 13b fit in.I might take this engine out and put a Turbo in the 7 if I can find a good shape GLC around here.There was a few a couple of months back but are long gone now.

It is but you got to use the 12A front cover. The only issue I see is the relocation of the turbo. There is not enough room between the strut tower and the motor for the turbo and the manifold. You might have to do a custom setup and locate the turbo where the battery originally would be.

Sorry about that.I was talking about pulling the NA out of my 7 and putting it in a GLC and doing a turbo swap on this 7 instead.Is the engine mount modifiable to fit this SE 13b in it?It uses the same mount setup as the stock 12a it had when I pulled it.
