so this is an old threat but i assume most of it holds true? im picking up an RB20DET to swap into my first gen and want to make sure i dont get any wrong info from here
>motor mounts need to be redrilled but can use stock ones
>RB20 trans fits in the trans tunnel and has the same spline count for the driveline you just need to space the motor forward about an inch
>the diff should be upgraded if making any larger hp numbers (my setup will only run 280hp for now)
>should be able to retain PS/AC with fittings (dont want AC only PS)
>you need to modify the steering box for downpipe fitment
does the transmission just bolt in with the L28 mount?
im new to forums sorry if reviving an old thread is bad lol
