CO Wow, don't remember doing this yet...

So, my name is Sean Hartman. I'm pretty new to rotories. I bought my first RX7 when I lived in Longmont, Co. Since then, I have sold it and moved back to my home town Marion, IN. Once again, I have a FB. I been plaining a 13B Turbo II swap, but am coming to the conclusion that it will be cheaper and easier to just sell my FB body and get an FC for my TII engine/trans. I've enjoyed RX7 since the first time I seen one when I was a kid. I can remember it was a red FC TII. My father explained to me that there was something different about what made it work that made it special. Little did he know, he had planted a seed that has developed deeps roots now. After that, he turned me on to an old book of his from late 70's that was like a For Dummys book on the various internal combustion engines of the time. Guess where he steered me? The Wankel. HOOKED! Well, that's me and a brief back ground. I look forward to learning, and maybe some day, planting my own rotory seeds. :-)

Dude! Go back to Plan A and stick the FC engine into the FB - it'll be a lot more fun and faster!

Thanks for taking the time to register and welcome aboard to RX-7 Club, Sean. All the information you need to pull that stunt off can be found in the FAQ page for the regular 1stgen tech board and believe me, it's been done plenty of times before with a hundred shortfalls encountered and solved. A lot of good reading.
