Blowwwn Engine! 13b Re-egi Swap!

hello, everyone. I have a 1987 rx7 n/a. recently I just slapped a turbo on it and ran it as hard as I could until the motor blew. The reason I did that is because I already owned a 1984 GSL-SE w/ a 13B RE-EGI engine. however, my sister recently stole it to go to a party and crashed it. So, I want to take the motor out of the gsl-se, with only 65K original miles, I know because it has been in my family sense 1984, before I was even born, and given to me last year for my 18 b-day, and put it into the 87. Has anyone done this before??? How difficult is it??? I was looking at the two engines and the only differences seemed to be the distributer: 87-internal & 84 external, the throttle body, the bypass air control valve, and the emission control clips. Is there anything else I should be aware of before I continue along in the project and is it really true that the re-egi engine in the 84 has more stock hp than the regular one in the 87? thanx, any help would be deeply appreciated.

has anyone tried making the 13b fit on a motorcycle? I only ask because I think it would be a great idea and I think the sound would be cool too... the only problem I would see is that the engine would get ***-hot.

rotormaniac the engine would most likely overheat due to the fact you would need a big radiator to keep it cool...
