What engines can be swaped?
ok, I just got home and found an 85 rx-7 gsl-se for $500. the engine is damaged from overheating. I know i can swap engines, which ones are the best, where can i get them, and how much would the swap be if i did all the labor myself (ball park)?
thanks Justin |
i think you can only run a certain 13b in that car so your limited,
should be able to pick up an engine on ebay for around $800.00 install it yourself and you just saved an easy $750.00 - $1,500.00 shouldnt take more then a weekend to do the swap |
just noticed your in ohio,
im in michigan supply some room and board for a weekend and we will have some bbq's and do the swap over the weekend, might even be able to con jeremy and mike p into coming up from ky |
Hey you found a cheap GSL-SE locally that Max7 and Paul Aber didn't buy? :D (ducking, running)

Then paint the top part of the firewall and drop my cosmo engine and t2 trans in the 85 today... I got a shitload of work to do... I think these cars talk at nite, the 85 brags and the 88 feels bad and decided to break! |

I will be selling My 1985 GSL-SE 13B out of my perfectly Running GSL-SE in about 30 days if you're interested. Probably go for $500 with the GSL-SE Tranny. |
