I wonder if I can beat your deal by picking up a RENESIS block? Not as cheap as 400. Hmmm. Competition time!




















Screw it, just ban you again.

You are so emo, but you are a cool kid in my book. Renesis block picked up for 900? It's just the core though.

I want to put a RENESIS into an FB. It would be carbed though, it's just alot of research and a few custom parts have to be made, and I don't have a welder. The Renesis motor has the front cover converted already to a 12A cover, it just needs a different oil pan made, and I have to figure out a way to make a speedo cable and a throttle cable too.

I am not really worried about the throttle cable, but the RX-8 used electronic throttle cables and speed cable. I wonder how long the RX-8 transmission is? It's just alot of research to do, and it's only being thought of right now. I will probably pick up the block and let it sit for a while and keep looking at it.
