hey. i'm just wondering if anyone knows if you can fit a triple rotar engine into a 3rd Gen RX7. i'm just startin to learn about rotaries and am starting to build one in my garage. i'm lookin to put it into a 3rd gen. i'm just wonderin if i can put a triple one in the car. or if i'll have to extend teh engine bay. that'll be a hella lotta work though. any help would be greatly appreciated.

be prepared to spend upwards of 20k just on the conversion. And yes they will fit.

Check out the 20B section on this forum. 20B is the three rotor. There are a few people doing it. I think that a few tuner shops still do a three rotor conversion. Maybe try Pettit Racing or Peter Farrel Supercars (although I'm pretty sure that Peter is no longer doing the conversions as it throws out the balance of the car a little.)
