I have a B12 with a carburator engine, looking to upgrade it with a B14 engine or Sr20 kinda considering either one.
What would i need to do either upgrade.
Can I upgrade the braking system too.

I was talkking to a padnah, i decided on the B14, but if i get the GA16 fuel injected i'll take it.

Just remember that a b12 is like 18 years
while a b14 is only like 10 years
parts for the b12 getting more difficult to source where available i is selling more expensive

the price for a ga16 is probably not to far off from sr20de
and most likely u'd have to make mounts for either engine, fuel pump, radiator,wiring etc
soo it may be better to go sr and done
unless u goin GA15 which is alot cheeper

go with the SR...the amount of those engines around....you can use it for a long time...GA15 and 16's going out now...but put it in the 14 not the 12...the 12 too old....

thats a nice project.....i saw a B11 and a B12 with SR engines in it, couldn't tell if it was 18 or 20 though.
A GA14DE in a B12 is very fuel efficient and has good power since its light weight and better yet a manual tranny.
Put ah CD17 or CD20 nah or yuh afraid?
