Default Not a honda, not a 4 banger, no turbo(yet)
Hey I'm 17 and I have been learning from you guys for awhile and there is alot of great information on this site. Anyway I have a 87 mazda rx7 which I am dropping in a chevy 350 with around 350hp. Don't flame me for putting an american motor in an import, but go ahead and flame about anything else. I am a car guy and I know car guys like to see what others have done so here are some pictures. I havent started the swap yet, but I have almost all the parts.









Thats it, have fun

---- mang i dont care. i bet that ---- runs. and o yeah, you might wanna upgrade the drivetrain to a turboii tranny before you get underway, mainly because the moment you lay ajny power on the stock you you got, pop. o and get the 5 lug conversion. youll get bigger breaks and an lsd in the back.

Every RX-7 I have seen with a small block had horrible tracking issues. Always yanks really hard to the right.
