Dimensions of that engine are larger than a BP if you are going to use a B13 transaxle.
Sure the engine will fit, but engine & trans won't fit unless you mount it mid-ship or something crazy like that. Even if you try to mount it longitudinally you'll be hacking up the frame, extending the front & doing so many mods that you might as well scrap the chassis & build a custom tube chassis.
And why would I make a wager with you about anything if you are full of shit to begin with. Redtops were in silvias up until 1995. You claim your engine is a 1998 which is bullshit. If it were, it'd be a blacktop.
Sure the swap isn't impossible. Let me know how it's going 4 years from now
A b16a swap would be way more feasible. Seeing how a mini had that swap done w/success, it is definitely possible in a festiva and would make a better choice anyways. The SR20 will have such a peaky power band that you'll rip the chassis in half before you do any decent drag runs. B16A is more linear & consistent.
