Look at this 2nd gen:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...item=1837024640



I mean, I'm SURE its fast as hell...I drive my buddies z28 camaro all the time and its fast for a heavy car, and I know that that motor in the lighter weight rx7 is bound to be running 11s...but I just hate to see pistons in a rex!

It looks to be a very nice conversion. I'd rather do a 20B, but every swap has its merits.

The digital speedo looks like ***...I wonder why they did that.



I would rather have a 20B as well...I'd just need something to drive while it's in the shop.

They probably couldn't get the stock speedometer to work with the GM transmission.

You can actually adjust the tach to work with a 20B. So it may be possible to do it for a V8.
