You'll find a lot of nice hood scoops here http://ww.... hey wait did I hear you mention a V8? Nevermind then, I know of no places Friends don't let friends put pissed-on engines in RX-7's man, its just not cool.

V8's are cool!--Rotaries For LIFE!!!

V8 swaps in RX-7's

I FOUND A GREAT ONE.

Look in a wrecking yard at a Mercury Capri.
It looks like a RX-7 Turbo II scoop, but slightly bigger. It is a very easy install on a N/A hood.
I got the idea from a car I saw on Grannysspeedshop.com

Haha.. You piston haters are either funny, or ignorant.... or both.... I'm not sure :p Yes, rotories rule, but to disrespect pistons is just ignorant.. They both have thier advantages and disadvantages. Its all about what you want. And dont bitch to me about their "soul". You find thier soul and yank it out and take a picture, cause I wanna see it...

Will you guys calm down, either help him or shutup, I'dve thought this piston transplant war would've been over a long time ago. I mean, hell as long as he resepcts the rotary, hopefully its a blown engine and someone can do something with him, why the hell not?
Just grow up, this is pitiful.
Piston Vs. Rotary war in general is very nice ;-)
