  • B6 swap

    I've decided I'd like to swap in a b6 engine in my 89 Festiva which is carburated. I'd like to keep it carburated. What should I do with the swap, I have a used engine in mind which was also carburated.
    Motor mounts
    water pump
    recore the radiator
    What else should I do while the engine is out.
    Thanks for all and any help.

    New end seals (crankshaft)for sure, and camshaft seal. Possibly valve guide seals. You can get a whole gasket kit, which includes the valve guide seals, on e bay for cheap! Do the transmission axle seals also. Also do the $20 timing belt. Is this a stick shift?
