shesh can't take a little teasing........

It's not like there aren't 100's of V8's in Rx-7's by now LOL.

we're all over the V-8 thing - just have to give a person a hard time just like putting a chevy motor in a ford car or whatever.

Go to a mustang site where you swapped in a LSX motor into a mustang.... should be about same reaction.

It's not what we would like but I can respect it and I expect the v8 guys to fire back with blowup/torque etc comments.

Why it's sometimes fun to hassle other motor guys.

It's no different than sports and someone likes a different team.....

Ok. I was trying to be nice even though I hate ls1s! If you knew anything about turbo sizing and rotaries you would know that those numbers arnt bad at all. Ls1 swaps are for the guys that don't have the brains to figure a rotary out. And guess what, I've never lost to a ls1! When you decide to pull that motor let me know how much you want for it!
