The only swap I have personally seen besides the V8 swaps was an SA with a 4.3 Vortech V6...actually was pretty quick little car, but not my cup of tea

The chassis that I will be doing a swap on, will be solely used for autocross/road course racing.

One of the swaps I have thought of performing.

Boxer flat four:

The Good; good torque, sits really low in the chassis, fairly light because its aluminum, and might mate up to the RX-7 trans.

The bad; Replacing miner things such as spark plug would be a choir, not as Stout of a motor than other options.
