That got me thinking, if i got the car and ripped out the motor, would it plonk straight into my 85 n/t lwb? I was just wondering seeing the car is only 7 months old, it would make a nice improvement on the way my old turtle drives

No. It will need mods.

Yeah LOTS of mods.

Wiring with the VVt is a little harder than without.
Engine mounts
Gearbox mount and shifter hole
modded jackshaft???
Cooling system mods

Its a fair bit more complex than a G16B swap, but G16B's are getting hard to find, so you may not have a choice soon.

And the M15 would be a better option as its a larger more powerful and torquier motor than the M13, and the same amount of effort to fit.
