Interested to see how that thing fits in an RX7.

Btw, you're going to need TWO of those turbos for a V8 gas engine

Cool swap.
Curious to see your engine mount design as well as exhaust routing... GL

hotrod magazine said that the gen 3 hemi will bolt up directly to the mounts for an old mopar muscle car with a SBM, granny speed shop has a swap kit that would work perfectly, for headers i can just flip some shorties around and make the turbo mount

There is a member on here who used the Granny's kit and had to modify one side of it to fit the mounts properly. Might want to do some research on it. Last I seen he swapped an LSx in it after years of running the LA block.
