does anybody knows how can i put a 13b in a susuki samurai i have an idea but i don't know can anybody tell me how can i change the mounts for the engine and the trany thanks i know they do that swap alot in puerto rico but i live in georgia and i don't have any help thanks

 

Have I got a friend for you. My bud, Jose Zeda @ Jose Rotary has done the swap before and it made it into a magazine a long time ago. He called it a Mazuki =) I'll pm you his email address and phone number. He's located in Haughton, LA.

 

thank man

 

i've seen this done. a guy out of the chi-town area did this with his and was runnig solid 10s. what year rotary and what one..12a or 13b?

 

I did mine front solid mount. i used a 4 speed rx4 tranny , with new transmissions you will have problems with the transfer. you will have to drill some new holes on the transfer yoke to match the new tranny. i used a volvo radiator which is plenty big and keep the engine @ 180. i did not used a rx7 radiator because the samurai was build for mud drag racing. the header have to be custom make. are you donig a 4x4 or 4x2 ?. if you need more info let me know i also have pics.

 

Pm rotarysuzuki. He has engine mounts and a drive shaft to keep the 4wd. He is running a 13b-re with ~450hp.

 

I'd love to see this happen... This sounds very interesting...

 

i want to put a turbo 2 engine 4x2 so i can race, yeah that would be great send me those pics thanks poncepr787@yahoo.com

 

i was told to put a 12a front plate and weld a front mout and forget about the side mount and line up the trany mount and thats it but i don't know if thats rite i want to see pics

 

Here's one for you... when i was working at KDR, we had a guy bring his samurai in all the time. We built him a 13b-REW for it with a single turbo. He then insisted that dave and i come to his events, and man was that thing fast! I don't have his number, but if you e-mail dave (dave@kdrotary.com) i'm sure he can give you the guy's number.

 

pics and how to sent
