it's a pretty easy conversion if u don't mind having the donk sittin way forward, this is how the conversion kits mount them. Unfortunately it also effects the handling a bit having more weight over the front. I chose to mount my 13b right against the firewall which mean't the wall had to be cut, tunnel widened, custom gearbox/engine mounts, shortened gear linkages on the series 5 box, reversed and modifyied sump etc etc. not easy but it looks factory and has made the car better balenced. will have a web site up hopefully soon with pics of the build up
cheers |

Depends, mine cost alot because I had the motor built from scrach with all new parts from mazda but the actual kit only cost $450. Once you have the motor & box + the kit all you need is a custom tailshaft ($200) then radiator, wire it up ($400).
Hope this helps |
