ok im doing an rb20 swap in my s13. im using mckinney motorsports mounts and im having a problem with my driveshaft. if i put the motor in where its supposed to go the driveshaft is an inch to long. if i put the driveshaft in and push the motor and trans back the oil pan hits my sway bar. i read that i could use my s13 driveshft with my rb20 swap. however i havent found that i can use the stock driveshaft with mckinney mounts ? wasnt sure if there mounts are made for there driveshaft only or what ? ive searched and still cant find the problem. ANY help would be greatly appreciated. THANKS

Is it an automatic driveshaft or a manual trans driveshaft? Only manual will fit. I'm currently working on the same swap, with McKinney mounts, but my motor's not in yet. I'll let you know how it goes.

If your car was a 5speed then the stock drive shaft will work with the RB20 trans.

Or take the dust shield off of the RB transmission if it's still there.
