Blown engine :-(

If I owned an sj I would go for M series vvt 13,15 or 16 mated to  R7ME gearbox with a stand alone ecu 
 

Righto. In the i’m going to crack on and do this at Xmas vein. 
We have a g13b DOHC motor sat in the garage, with a loom, ECU and quite a lot of ancillaries. 

The engine is a phase 2, so the angled dizzy cap trick should work. 

Trying to sort out the exhaust manifold. Options are. Buy a specific manifold. That’s about 500 quid. No thanks! 
Buy a g13b 4 branch performance exhaust and make an adapter plate with 12mm plate. 
Buy a g13b DOHC turbo manifold and attach to that. Could allow for future turbo shenanigans….

Alternatively a jimny sports manifold? They have round ports which is good… matching the ports on the head (unlike the Sami performance manifolds)
But are the ports spaced the same? If so that could be an option that wasn’t available in period?

Mazda 323 something distributor cap?
I think you still need to make a dent or cut out in the firewall.

not sure of the exhaust for the twin cam sorry..

I’ve got the 323 cap and rotor. 
After a day of decision making and research I’ve ordered a 4 branch for a Sami and some 12mm plate. None of the holes over lap so I’m going to fab up an interface plate to mount the header and blend the port shape. 
Need to source a #17561-63B01 thermostat housing which should change from horizontal to side exit. 

Then it’s on to the loom…

Hopefully get some time tonight to pull the carb and ready it for sale. Anyone for a nearly new weber conversion kit?…

Then I’ll pull the head and drop in the spare DOHC and we can see what’s really going to be to do.

I think mine is from an early swift something, not the twincam. (Will also fit the Baleno G16 for the same purpose)
