hi, I am new to this forum and am looking to buy an rx-7 3rd generation 6speed with LS1 engine...I want to know if its reliable for daily use...& what kind of problems that the rx7 with LS1 engine have, if any..does it have any heating issue if I upgrade the radiator? & acctually I have RX-8 2004 touring fully loaded(nav), & am looking to trade in +some cash for rx-7 3rd generation with LS1 engine...

 

the motor came in vettes, of course its reliable. its american v8 muscle. No problems if done right, just like any engine/motor swap

 

Your going to need a lot of cash. Maybe a LS1 FC would be a better starting place for you. They are just as fast. There is one LS1 FD for sale right now.

Heres the link. Its really clean and is a great price.

They take more kindly to V-8 RX-7s over there.

If you buy it with the swap already done, I guess it is as reliable as person who did the swap.

Go over to the above site and do a lot of reading.
