3 rotor swap info

I want a 3 rotor from a cosmo it comes with a the harness computer and auto tranny. what do you have to do to to bolt it in? will the 3 rotor bolt to a tII tranny? is there already a thread on here i cant find that details this swap. I have a built and supercharged 12a right now but I want to sell it and buy a 3 rotor. I just want to know how much of a hassle is this swap. I have a TII tranny already in the car and I dont want to go automatic. Will i have to make a custom crossmember to hold the motor?
If anyone is interested in buying a 12a with a 7" camden on it with less than
5000 kms on everything (Motor and Supercharger rebuilt) Just message me.
12a makes 250 hp to the wheels!

j/k, but I know its coming.

John, try going through the search feature and you should find most of your questions answered already. If after searching you still can't find everything you need, then post up some specific questions you might have.
To get you started though, yes, a TII tranny bolts up to the motor perfectly and is prefered. I don't know if the shifter will will be in the same location or not though. Kinda depends on what mounts you use also.
An n/a 20b is an awesome thing, but no, it will wind up costing more in the long run than keeping the 20b turbo.
good luck researching the swap a litle more.

I really just can't believe that threads like this are even allowed to be created. If you're really serious about doing the swap you need to put in the countless hours that we all have researching how to get it done. There is more info within this 20B subforum than you could probably digest and your question has been asked a zillion times already.

Please search!!

Kid you need to understand something about this forum. Everyday these very same questions are asked all the time by people who refuse to use the proper tools available to them. It's a broken record. By opening the thread your opening yourself up to anyone who has any information to give you. Does the thread title not read "3 rotor sawp info? Where in your 1st post did you ask for help by people who want to help? It's doesn't exist. You can't expect to come on here and just be spoon feed info. Every last person who has done their own 20b swap did so based on their own research. Everyone else pays someone else to do it. The tech "unlike you" did that research and has his 20b set-up running. Your not going to find any blue prints around here with that kind of attitude. He is right all this stuff has been covered over and over and over. Your response above is flat out childish. Then when little ***** like yourself get told to search, you spout off nonsense like above and show your true age. It's funny the things people will say while hiding behind their keyboards. Good luck getting any help from any person on this forum who actually has any experienced advice to give.

T-von said perfectly. We all have jobs too John; How else do you think we afford to have 3 rotor powered cars? My advice to you is to stick with your supercharged 12a 1st gen and have fun with that.
