Question 13b-re Cosmo into 88 RX7

Ok, I have an 88 RX7 10th annv. I want to do an engine swap for a 13b-re cosmo out of a 93 RX7. And I want to create a muscle look without suffering the tuner look with Wider tires all around... Any Ideas? And how would I go about the swap?

the 93-95 rx7's had the REW. The RE is out of the Cosmo in Japan. There are motor mounts sold at speedmachineperformance.com for the mounts on the RE. For the REW you'll have to custom build mounts. Your 10th AE should already have a turbo motor in it. Why not beef it up???

600 HP without wider tires, huh? what do you have done to your car now?

man, just get an S5 block and build a high HP around it. i'm sure you can get all you power you'll ever need.
