20B Swap
Hey Im getting a 3rd Gen RX-7 Roller and was wondering if the 20B Swap was worth it or if I should go with the standard 13B. I know it is going to be an expensive endevour. I just wanted to know what troubles I may run into and what all is need to complete the swap and how much the labor usually cost for something like this.

a completely finished 20B swap will cost the price between a used C5 vette to a used C6 Z06 ($15k-50k)

FYI 6-7k is about the cost of a 13B rebuild + turbos... 20B = big baller
