It has about 135 thousand miles.

Anyway, I plan on using the stock rearend tell it goes out. Im not sure what I'll do when it does, use the tII rear or not. The stock rear has 3.90 ratio.

Ive never heard of fuel pumps going out..Check your filters and do a compression test..How many miles?
Yeah all three of the ones my buddy bought the fuel pumps were siezed. a little pb blaster and a hammer usually got it to work. out of 5 that we bought with a (blown motor) only one actually had bad apex seals. a comp test is deffinately the way to go.

Pre '87 are deffinatley weak, but '87 and newer can handle some decent power. if tweaked a little, they can be pretty damn good. that's what i have in my camaro. 400 sbc with no turbo

I've seen those cars take alot of abuse, we've outrun the cops N/A quite a few times when I still hung out with the shady pieces of ---- croud. with a racing beat header and a decent intake, they breathe real well

Yeah that engine looks sweet as hell is that a crate? I say do what you want with it, the weight distribution will be fucked up just a little, and they'll flame the ---- out of you at rx7club.com but it'll run like a ******.

Its a rebuilt 350 from a local machine shop. Actually once I remove all the bullshit rotory stuff and move the battery to the back it will be 50/50 weight distro.
