Detonation will damage pistons, bend rods, crack cylinders and cyl sleeves, shock and break apex seals, dent rotors, and blow head gaskets. its an event that happens in the combustion chamber only, nothing to do with the oiling system.

I personally think that if you're going to gut an FC3S and go with a non-rotary engine you should probably go with an LS1. This is PURE opinion of course. They do however offer a lot of bolt in kits to make this success possible, transmission spacers to use the 06 GTO 6 speed tranny, and it has been successfully done again and again. Having said that, I love the SR20 engine line. But you may not want to introduce yourself to a unique line of headaches. I know personally as an RX7 owner for many years just the mechanical trouble a rotary can give you will make you pull your own hair out, I can't imagine going in to some unknown territory if I wasn't a master mechanic, fabricator, and electrician.
