good to know, i have another question i have everything to put together a s4 rx7 motor N/A into the truck has any one done it? and what kind of problems am i going to run into like hood clearing, and trany holding up and so on and so forth



I have a s4 motor in mine with a weber carb and 1st gen ignition system. You will need a different front cover and oil pan. Other than that its pretty strait forward. Tranny is more than good, and no hood clearance problems.

i am planing on runing a s4 N/A intake im going to keep it fuel injected, and the second gen intake manfolds are very tall as you know and i dont know if it will clear the hood.



so the stock repu trany is pretty good? im build the motor for it right now and it should be puting out 220hp-260hp at the fly the repu trany can hold up to that?

The repu trans is extremely strong. It will have no problem with that power. You might need a better clutch though.

kuhnke 01-25-2007 09:14 PM

will an NA rx7 clutch work, i have an extra centerforce dulefriction laying around for one.



and does any one know about the manfold?

I am still going to say it will probably fit because I know there have been turboII engine swaps leaving the intercooler on top. I cant imagine that would be much shorter than the N/A manifold. I may be able take a couple measurements and come up with a more accurate guess this weekend.

I forgot about that. Discount Tire did snap one of my studs. I went through and replaced the whole left side with right hand thread studs so I wouldnt have to worry about that any more.

when i bought my repu it came with the origonal engine that was in it in 1974, anlong with a replacment one that was in the truck from an rx-4.

so i broke down the 74 this weekend and the rotor housing were in super condition, pretty sweet score a good set of rotor housing for free almost, but i will have to have the exhust dognuts removed so any future engine will be able to breath(smallist exhust ive ever seen).
