13B into 79 rx-7

I have a 79 RHD. I'm thinking of putting a 86 13B in it. I know about front brace/oil pan change but is it hard to run fuel inj on this? Can i wire in the ecu from the 86? also what about my gas tank? I hear i need a surge tank..

Give me some info so i know how much is required and if it's worth it..

Thanks.

You need a Gsl-se front cover, oil pan, front cross brace, and oil sump pickup tube. Also since the 79 only has a 5/16" fuel supply line you need 3/8" supply to keep up with extra fuel you need because of all the extra power you will be making.

im making a shitload more power than a stock 86 13b and I got the stock fuel lines and no surge tank either... Just keep the tank 1/4 full at the lowest. With FI you WILL need a new fuel pump tho.
