hey guess im looking into doin this swap in my 88 trubo II. is there any sites,manufactures, or anything to help me with this swap. Or anyone on this board that has done this swap i have about 8 grand to spend. thanks guys

 

if youve got 8k, sell your tII for 5k then buy a Corvette....then you'll have an LS1

or spend 5k on a turbo/porting setup that will POUND THE **** out of a V8

seriously though, you might find some info on this in the tech and performance section, or try a search this comes up all the time


OH - BTW, don't go trumpeting an LS1 swap around the forums too much, you're talkin' to rotor heads hear.....

 

www.torquecentral.com

You will find a lot more information over there.

Disregard morons like above.

it's a waste of a rotary car but it will be stupid fast.

PM gnx7 he's done a crapload of them (ls1 FC, ls6 FD and his new project LS vert)

 

ok ok now for the ROTARY WHICH HUHT.. OFF WITH HIS HEAD!!!:-) ........... post *****

 

thanks guys, and to the ******** to i guess

 

his car he can do what he likes to it.

btw its "here" not "hear"

 

LS1 RX7 would be evil, but itd throw off the balance of the vehicle a bit id think. Go for it its your car after all, i'll take your tii motor

 

actually it doesnt.

 

I am looking to do the exact same thing. I am still in research mode myself!

http://grannysspeedshop.com/ is a really good site and so is hinsons site.

I think you can do the swap for 8k...considering you already have the 88.




forget the haters. the ls1 has way more potential than the 13b

 

thats the smartest thing i have ever heard anyone say about anything ever!

J/k

but seriously (this goes for everyone) read before you go spouting off misinformation that you read on dumb ricer forums.


you mean WITCH and HUNT


personally with the 8 grand you have you could probably get away with a low budget LS1 swap, or be able to do a decent LT1/LT4 swap with a couple mods.

people have had difference of opinions about grannys speed shop, but hinson is a sure thing, they are very attentive to thier customers and the quality of thier product. before you set your mind on anyone thing do some more research and find which swap will work best with your budget.

 

i have just recently gotten my ls1/t56 rx-7 running. the car is a 1990 TII with 51k on the odometer. love it to death got it all done including car and all parts for about 7k. but i did all of the work



do the swap!!!

 

post pics id really love to see it

 

 

there ya go

 

wow just wow how much did that set-up cost you?

 

Like I said it was about 7k including car, engine/tranny, and all parts. That was with me building the car though and I was able to sell a decent bit of parts from both the RX-7 and the Camaro I got the engine from.
