I'll start with a little background info. I have a base model 1987 non-turbo (I think it's a base model because it has the 4 lug wheels and no power steering). I've had the car since 1994, but haven't driven it in the last 4 years because it has been stored in a garage in Europe. I plan on moving back to Europe in early 2003. The last time I drove the car the transmission felt like it was starting to go and the motor was feeling a little weak. I just bought a new car for over there, so the RX-7 is now going to be more of a toy then a daily driver. What I would like to know is what is involved in either dropping a 2nd gen turbo motor in it, or better yet fitting a 3rd gen motor and trans in it. I only really need to know what parts are needed for each of the previous 2 options, and what kind of work is involved. I've also been doing a little research in dropping either a small block chevy or Grand National motor in the car, what are your thoughts on taking that route.
I appreciate any help you guys can provide.
