If you see me around town, holla at me would love to meet some cool rx7 owners. Also if you know of anyone selling a nice recaro seat, or a nice steering wheel let me know.

STOP POSTING PICTURES OF YOUR CAR!! I'm running out of underwear!!!

You changed your exhaust since the last time I saw it. How do you like this current set-up? I am curious how it sounds with that canister.

I was thinking it would be cool to take pictures somewhere in Bellevue where you could see the exit 13b sign behind it, you were close... 13A

Well with that car you'd need the 13b sign pointing one way and him going the other way.

Not a fan of the V8 swap but I have to admit this is well done.

That is a great looking swap - so clean.

Make sure to bring it by one of the Izzy's meet or another get together. THere will be lots of stuff going on here soon with spring/summer on the way including a dyno day, I'm sure.

BTW - nice photos

I am making 345 whp, and 350 foot pounds. I have intake headers and dual 2.5 inch exhaust to a single 3inch, My old exhaust was a dual 2.25 crush bent, this ones mandrel bent. I have put 9,000 miles on it since the swap, its been doing good. I got 28 mpg when i drove it to Idaho in July. Since its a stock computer and no major mods, I also put it in 6th gear at 70 mph and i am between 1900 and 2000 rpms. I am always down for photo shoots, or rides just pm me.


yes they are rickys old wheels of his s13.

I always thought that big engine compartment was begging for more motor, whether it be a 20b or a nice v8. Gotta give huge credit for not just doing a carbed 350, great swap, maybe one of the best!!!!!!

I agree, My friend who drifts a t2 rx7 drove my car and said beside the torque response at 1900 rpms and the power. He couldn't even tell there was a bigger motor in the car. I actually ost 170 pounds after taking out the carpet and sound deading and swapping motors. Yeah i think the car sounds great coming out of that exhaust. my friend who owned a vette said its the best sounding ls1 hes ever heard. for just having an exhaust that is.
