^^^^ when thought about it was supposed to end up somewhat of a tourqe monster. it has 4.10 gears, and you could light the tires up forever. then i sold it, and it got messed up, not really his fault, but there were things that needed to be fixed to make a reliable daily driver. but were not and..... doom.

This is the ULTIMATE domestic powered RX7! From last months issue of Sport Compact Magazine (the only reason I picked up the mag was 'cause there was a Camaro on the cover!)

Axle/Gears: huh?? guessing stock.
I believe the place is gradmasgarage.com or somethinglike that has a complete conversion for a 350 into any gen RX-7. I was going to do that to my 82, but got a killer deal on a 93 FD instead.

lol no no no not me I'm happy with my rotary powered rx7. 13b is reliable enough at over 200k miles right now and I wouldn't want to start dinking with this car like that.
now if I had a first gen on the other hand that would be another story though.
