Do some reading in this forum. The rest of us had to.

ix booster or e21 modified

^^tony got it right, but the guys above aren't just busting your balls, there's more tidbits you're going to have to know before attempting the swap. Biggies being the above referenced booster, the right oilpan/sender/dipstick, depending on what kind of power -- probably a different differential, maybe even driveshaft depending on what tranny you use, the wiring headaches (or simplification with pieces like treehouse), etc, etc.

Theres a subforum for twincam swaps, with an extensive sticky. There is enough information across this site, that you won't need a project orca cd, but it takes a healthly love-hate affair with the search button.

good luck.

Very true im in the middle of getting all the parts b4 i tear my car apart just look i the twincam stick there is more info then you will need in there but most people dont just want to tell you i started on page one and read 36 pages with dial up (slow) b4 i fell asleep and i found out all sorts of little goodies that the orca would not have and you need to know so just start on page one and start reading thats the best way
