Re: glc needed
There are a few other options too. With a 1600cc 808 engine/suspension crossmember (bolt in replacement) you can fit the NA 1600cc engine from an 808 (obviously) the MA 2000cc engine from a rwd 626, and I *think* that the FE engines from late 80's 929s may also fit. Of the FE engines, there was a carbied and an injected 2000cc, and also the FET motor, a 2000cc injected turbo motor. Stock these are relatively tame, as they are non-intercooled and run relatively low boost. But they are the same engine as in 626 turbos, mx6 turbos and ford telstar turbos. None of those blocks are any good to you, as they're setup for fwd, but because they are a reasonably popular engine, there is a good supply of aftermarket internals and other goodies. They are a good motor, and they share the same bore and stroke as an SR20. I believe that fitting the crank from later mx6s to get a 2.2l motor may be an option as well. This is all stuff that I have only come across fairly recently, but I am very tempted to do a conversion on the daily. I haven't yet done enough research to be certain that it will fit, but it appears probable. Even stock these should be good for around 80-90rwkw, which is similar to my previous carby 12a powered 323 that was surprisingly quick. Still demolished most newer cars.
