this definately isnt a hard conversion... if u seen what i had to do to my datto's this is a walk in the park

u gotta swap the fuel system to efi, which means surge tank life pump and efi pump. or convert the tank with a bigger outlet, possibly run bigger fuel lines??? not to sure on the current sized ones, its only a 1.6 injected motor anyway dont use much fuel.

u gotta move the alternator and water pump over or use one of those water re-route kits.. i think the 4ac water pump bolts on and u move the alternator to the other side ( passenger side) and it all works. thats wats on mine anyway. i bought it converted. then re-wire it and exhaust and check to see what rad u want to use to.. and twin thermo's ofcourse.. not sure about throttle cable either but it aint hard to mod one

do sum searching on the net man look up 20v into ae86

So you guys would pay $500 for a secon hand motor.

Say I had a spare one and I decided to strip it, acid wash it, flex hone it, clean the pistons, new rings, regrind the crank, resize rod big ends, all new race series bearing, new head gasket and put back together...

How much would you pay for that (inlcuding quads and shit like that)?

then you gotta look at a new diff because your S series wont hold up.
and then you MAY have to look at a W series box unles syou got some spare
which also mean syou will need a custom bell housing.
