Installing a 1st gen engine in a 2nd gen car
1988 Rx-7
My old engine broke down and I am considering buying a rebuilt 1st generation engine for my car. I was told that the 1st generation engine doesn't fit perfectly into a 2nd gen car and that some conversion work is required. I still have all the original parts for my car. What needs to be done in order to make the 1st gen engine compatible?
