are you thinking about swapping in a piston engine, is that what you're asking or another rotary?

If I'm reading your post correctly, you're looking to do a Corvette LS series engine swap. We have a separate sub-forum listed below for that.

https://www.rx7club.com/other-engine-conversions-non-v-8-118/

If I'm wrong, then you need to provide more details about what you're wanting to do.
