16 valve convorsion in a k10 help please

[Tomy 867]

Hi. I was wondoring if it was possible to do a 16 valve engine convorsion into an older k10 shell without messing to much with engine mounts in my 1991 nissan micra k10 . But there is one catch i need to keep the 8 valve gearbox because it has better ratios for racing which is what i need it for. Any help would be greatly apreciated

You can do this and keep oem engine mounts, engine will just need custom ones. I have done these conversions
