LA Newb from Louisiana

Hello my name is Ariel (yes Im a Female) and Im probably fixing to get rocks thrown at me, but I have a 3 rotor motor Im swapping into a Mazda B2200 thats bagged. This is not my boyfriend's ride nor do I have one. I plan on a T67 being my turbo and I got some great help with this build from a few good folks that are very knowledgable in the rotory field.

You say a 3 rotor for a truck? well its all about being different in the lowrider scene and everyone else is doing 302s in these so I figured I could do a rotory. I contacted Rotary Performance in Dallas,Tx and found a 3 rotor threw them so now the build is on the way. I have pics of the truck, but none of the motor as I just got it and was bought over the phone and its being rebuilt before we install it.

Guy is claiming to make anywhere from 400 to 550whp safely with this motor.

Ariel, welcome aboard and sorry for the massive delay in getting you through the gate. That was the craziest one I've seen yet and I had to wait for the superiors to give me a decision.

Have fun with that 20B swap...an interesting choice of vehicles but no one will be throwing stones over this one...it's the V8 swap into 1stgen RX-7's that gets everyone frothing at the mouth, biting everything within's arm distance!

Mar3 Im sorry if I come off as a you know what in the pms and death I will surely keep this place updated on it. Im currently trying to find a decent wheel to go with the truck to kinda draw attention from the motor to the rest of it. To make sure people notice it is a truck and not a rx7.

Why would anyone swap a V8 into a RX7? thats a waste of a rotary.
