Renesis swap into FC

I searched for an hour and could not find details on this swap. Could it be done without it being a hack job and has anyone done it?

well ask yourself this. WHY are you doing the swap?

If its to be different thats cool.

If its to have more power...its cheaper to do a T2 swap and have known support and parts available to do with it and to deal with the known unknowns.

I'm pretty sure someone is working on this. I know I saw a build thread somewhere...

edit: found it:https://www.rx7club.com/2nd-generation-specific-1986-1992-17/1990-gtu-meet-renesis-802374/
I haven't read through it all, but it seems to require a lot of fabrication work. I'm sure fuel, ignition, drivetrain, etc are big challenges as well.
