Putting a V8 in a 85 RX-7
Alright, check it out. Today, I got a 85 RX-7 for FREE :
The problem is that the engine is totaly dead.
I dont have the money to get a new rotory engine.
So heres my delema. I wanna get either a V8 or a large V6 but I dont know if it is leagal in California to do. Im sure that I could make it smog leagal.
I can get a engine for cheap at the local Pic-N-Pull and I have the resorces to rebuild it but I need a conversion kit.
And if you have done it before, about how hard is it if I buy one of those granny kits and about how long would it take?
Ive seen how harsh some people are here about this type of thing, so Id like this to be kept somwhat civilised. I knowthat there will be some people trying to rip me a new one for this.
Thanks.
