WILL a 20BTT work in a non turbo 88 rx7 gxl...well its a gxl but i put a 13BT motor in i was wondering if it wood fit and how much work would the electronics take??
and will it be a ENDLESS money pit from hell

 

Yes, with enough money, a 20B will work in anything.

It depends on what electronics you mean.

Absolutely!

 

Evil is right on! Considering the money this project is going to take, dump the GXL and find a tight, well maintained TII (perhaps even lightly modified - suspension, bushings, etc). That way you'll start with a car that was meant to take a bit more abuse (tranny, rear-end, suspension, etc) for the ultimate beast this will turn into - assuming you get it running. That comment by the way is not meant as an insult, just a reality check. Another route would be to stick with your GXL, beef up the suspension and find a 20B front clip. Use the stock computer and transmission and keep it as an auto. It's a compromise, but you'll be up and running in a much shorter period of time. I believe this is what NOW (user on this forum) did. It really is a great idea. At least you have a operational car that could be improved or modified over timeif you wanted to. Just my 2 cents. Good Luck.

 

Good advice. Better advice: Buy mine.

Much easier.

 

I dunno bout buying the vert, but id buy your engine

 

We can work a deal here: Buy the engine for only $39,900, and I'll throw in the vert for free. It makes a great place to store the engine, until you want to use it.

 

may i point out that this is a limited time offer?

That's right! 11 months and 21 days until the the twins graduate...but who's counting?
