It was a turbo rx-7 figure the engine the piping the exhaust, all of that combined isin't much lighter than a ls1. My friend done this with his 87 mazda rx7 he weighed everything out. He said ls1 is roughly 30 pounds heavier. The car was scary fast and handled like a dream ran high 12s. He is now working to do the same swap on his 94 fd.

you rotards can keep your little unreliable 1.8, this man decided to grow u p and put a real engine in his car. Last time I checked the most expensive and high performance exotics are sporting a v8 v10 and v12. If you want t o call a ferrari a hickmobile by all means

The ls1 makes the balanc e off by 20 pounds in the front which is easily offset by relocating the b attery

Where do you get 20,000$ from in engine mods? A ported reman with OEM seals, beefed up fuel system, ECU, a good turbo such as a T78, GT42R, or aspec's 500R hardly run 20 grand, and you can get 500WHP out of it. The parts alone for an LS1 swap run around 10,000$, that doesn't include labor.

Hmm. My rotary has made it more than 100k miles with good compression without needing any new apex seals. Odd.

what a waste of a FD chassis. Keep the crappy 27 liter V8's for hickmobiles and pickup trucks
