13b Powered b4 B2000

looking good man.

I believe 3:30. But don't quote me on it. This is good info though as trannys for our truck are weird to come by. Might have to look into this.

Yesterday, walked outside to start it up and drive it to get some diesel for the heater. On the way home, the engine started knocking like crazy. Less then 50 miles on it and its a goner. Called the builder up and they are calling me back to determine if they are going to refund me this time.

If they do return the engine, I will have plenty of parts going up for sale. Possible list

1. intake and weber carb
2. Alternator with warranty from Oriely's Autoparts
3. Starter with warranty from Oriely's Autoparts
4. Zoom Clutch with less then 50 miles on it
5. New radiator from Oriely"s with warranty
6. Garrett Turbo with Manifold and oil lines.
7. Rx7 tranny built for b2000 MA motor
8. Water pump with warrranty

I'll take that weber and intake depending on how much $$. Sucks to hear bro.

Yay got my $864 back for the engine. So now my truck sits alone with no powertrain. On a side note, the 12a in the 82 rx7 started up today. Even drove down the road in it. I am supposed to pick up a 84 gslse 13b engine and tranny later this week. Might just through the 12a in for now and rebuild the 13b. This little truck project is really taking on a life of its own. I am just having fun and enjoying the ride man....

Pics for all you looky loos..

nice truck man.

looking good man ,i wanna hear it ,i had a rotary ,12 a but never made it into the truck ,so im curous

Dude, I wanna see that baby running a 13B. I have a 12A in mine out of an 85 GS and after I yanked that crappy Nikki carb off with 10 pounds of wiring, air pump, cast exh. manifold, and a few other details, I still don't have the power of a stock 13B. Plus the mounts are different for both so you can't just swap them out easily. I would definitely do a 13B if I had it to do over. Let me know if you need any help or pics on anything too. -Ed

Its been a loooooong time since I have played around with rx7's, but if memory serves me right. The 79-85 models could easily swap between 12a and 13b as long as you used a 84-85 13b. Now your right in 86 they did change the way the 13b mounted in and to mount it you need to borrow a few parts from a gslse motor. I will have some nice pics up soon of the 13b engine.
