I would use the Syko Performance Swap Kit.

It's $585.00 but I think they are doing a group buy right now.

Why are you going to get the head and block re surfaced? Is the motor blown? Unless you are trying for over 450-500 right out of the box there is no reason to pull the head off. save the money and buy a greddy manifold. Use the same oil pump unless you have crank collar problems in which case you will be rebuilding the motor. The water pump is the only thing I definitely recomend replacing straight away. Don't buy a KOYO they ALL leak get a Griffin--they don't leak (same price). Recirculate your BOV or it will stall when you come off throttle. You will also need someone to fabricate a cold and hot pipe.

P.s. Don't forget the most important thing when doing a RB swapLots of $$$$$$$$$$

My car just got painted so the Rb is out of the car getting pretty(powdercoating,greddy manifold) so you may have yours on the road before me! The turbo is still stock, fuel injectors and FMS is still stock other wise EVERYthing else is custom. How far are you into your swap?

Yes the mounts are MUCH stronger!! They are not add on-I cut the factory mounts and built them to the RB once I had it properly oriented in the engine bay.

They are having an airshow today and tomorrow.
