just wondering why, as you can get a rwd DET motor for less in most cases.

wont happen.
When you put a FWD engine in a RWD car the distributor will hit the firewall at the very least.

Among other problems:
Different front cover
Different accesorie drive setup
different intake and exhaust manifolds.
different mounts IIRC

Not gonna happen man
