13b housing question.

[warwickben]

hey guys just a few odd question.

i rember seeing a post on the other site of some one machining a 13b housing to work on a 12a motor. right now my sa is in my car tent and i plan to rebuild the motor and restore the car and do more mods till my rx8 is paid off (few years at least.. a part of me wants to convert it to a 13b,and part of me wants to stay 12a and be different. if i go 13b i mite just do a TII swap. if i stay 12a i mite go cadmen, turbo pport ect.

any ways my question is encase i need new housings, what 13b housing would i need to buy and have machined to the right width. is it just a matter of fly cutting each side x amount and iam done or would i need to have a cnc program made up and have some thing machine on each side. yeah yeah i know what your thinking iam nuts but like i said i saw this done in a thread from the evil site. the only thing is i cant find that thread.


the reason i ask is i can get them machined for free if its just a matter of flycutting each side. if it needs cnc work a few 30 racks of beer will pay my old boss off lol.
