 |
|
| My car has just had a 13bt dropped into it, with everything ready to go except for the exhaust and the computer. To put the motor in, it cost between $2300, $2500 (you need to supply the front cut) If anyone is interested send me a message and I will give you the details. matsparkinson@hotmail.com |

I didn't think you could get a 13bt engineered in a gemini in queensland

| gem 160 I am sending you an email. Check with Transport department b4 going ahead. There is also another gemini there with a 13bt transplant. He has done a really professional job, will have some pics in maybe a month (when I can buy a camera) |

| $2200 for custom engine mounts, custom gearbox mounts, shortened shifter (about 10cm)cut throughtrans tunnel and welded up old hole, small firewall cut to connect hydraulic clutch setup, clutch changed from mechanical to hydraulic. Clutch and flywheel installed, shortened and custom fitted tailshaft, radiator hoses connected, custom sump, some other things can't think of them just now. Need a custom exhaust manifold ($200) and dump pipe ($200) buying a microtech ltx8, already got top mount intercooler. All up should be around $4000 |
