Yea but the rotary is the entire essence of the RX7, imo. Without a rotary, its a ruined dream car.

i agree, but that doesnt change the fact that it would be lighter.

well its not so much the weight, but where it is placed. I am not sure where the weight is with the LS1 swap, but i would be more concerned about that.

Yeah well get this...I ran into a guy a couple weeks ago who said his Father had and FD with a 3 rotor. So I was a little surpised cause its not everyday you find someone with a 3 rotor FD. So as I ask him about the conversion, he says well its setup so the 3rd rotor runs the whole time at the high rpms....ya know how those first two rotors will spin then the 3rd one kicks in. I was like...riiight yeeahh well gotta go.

Ha ha well you should have told him he should convert his rotors to non sequential.
