Engine Swap
Engine Swap
I have two questions guys.
First off, would this be a good buy?
Secondly, how hard would it be to put that into a FC or FB?
My dad and I have swapped engines, but no rotary's.
What do you think guys?

Rotaries are cosemtically like any other engine, so the swap part isn't diffucult. Jspecs are a good buy if you rebuild them right away, otherwise its pointless, most jspecs have been sitting for a while usually, so a Rotary J-spec isn;t recommended (rebuilding one is a great idea if you get one).
$700 isn't bad.

There are a couple videos and an post in the archeives (sp?) above that list prices for gaskets and the such. A rebuild isn't too hard, a FSM or Haynes Manual make it go a long way. Also alot of guys here would be more then willing to help ya. But it can't be too diffucult if you pay attention and don't half-*** it.
