Damn NOPR, I didn't even realize you're in Flint. I just made an offer on a house in Higgins Lake. Moving up there for a job in December.

You wouldn't be interested in selling anymore headers like the one you have would you? If so how much do you think one would run for?

I can make headers for the FD or FC 20B applications. The price will depend if you want it in stainless or mild steel. Stainless headers, I will only make out of 321 tubing, and is very pricey. Mild steel is MUCH cheaper!

That is something I will keep in mind. I have spent some of my spare time, getting a price list together for all the goods I will need to make my own 20B N/A setup with your kit. So far I am looking at about 16K (minus the car). Guess it all boils down to cupping the ***** and finding a roller and getting things rolling this December.

Anyway, thanks for the advice GTORX7!

Haha, yeah lots of updates, just need to wait until I get three more parts (I let loose a clue, they are triangles) and I can assemble the engine, and put it in the car. I have been delayed a little to finish the wifes Rx-4, trying to make one of the most powerful 13B's n/a on sideports for her. Hmmm, maybe I said too much.

Hehe yup, now you'll have to post vids of TWO cars!

So what kind of triangles are you throwing into the engine? Same stock 9.7:1 or something different?

The newest creation is the Rx-4, it was built to be a very fun car, and on a shoe string budget. So far its turning out nicely, I will make sure the wife drives it up to the meet(its her car after all, I guess I can let her drive it). My FD has made slow progress, but it should be ready by spring time.

Just bringing this back... wondering what the status is.

I'm not trying to sound impatient, I'm just "checking for a pulse," that's all.

Sometimes these threads go away for a bit and you come back only to find out the car has been parted or the engine has been sold or put into something else, that kind of thing.

I have been busy developing more parts, and using the car for now as a "test mule". It is still safe and sound, and the real engine is waiting patiently to be installed. Thanks for staying interested! Good things will come to those who wait!

Here is the thread-
https://www.rx7club.com/20b-forum-95/first-look-production-fd-20b-conversion-kit-583378/
It may not help at all if you are doing a FC 20B swap. But I have been very unhappy with the 20B kits offered for the FC. So I will be making some heavy duty mounts, sway bar relocation ect. all in one kit, sometime soon.
