Whizbang · 10-02-2008, 10:06 PM

P71 · 10-03-2008, 08:29 AM

I have 2 V8's with no cars and an RX-7...

I'm shopping for one to drop my 302 into for now, and maybe swap it out for my 401 later.

what is this 'LS6' stuff... im new with RX-7s and confused..........

lt1_fd3s · 11-10-2008, 06:44 PM

"LSx" is the low-end torque mod for an RX-7.

rc80 · 11-24-2008, 10:30 PM

just got a new LS1 FD track car project. Can't wait to see how she does.

I have an 1994 FD with a 2002 LS1 I swapped that is up and running. Bone stock (except the headers to get it to fit), through cats - 300lb/ft at 2000rpm. Made 327whp/327tq... It 'feels' faster than my 380ish whp rotary, but I know it isn't. Gotta love the torque though! It will put you back in your seat and it sure is fun to drive.

I'm running a Chevy Small Block 400 in an FB... runs as it sits right now, but needs a complete interior, and I've got about 8k in parts for the motor sitting around that should bump it up to about 600hp & 550 ft/lbs.

NMJ87T2 · 07-28-2009, 09:08 PM

LS1 T2 here!!

93silverbullet · 09-09-2009, 05:12 PM

93 FD with an LS2/T56 combo here.

Phoenix7 · 09-09-2009, 05:23 PM

damn, you all are making it over here in decent numbers.....maybe we should look into a rotary vs. piston track event. RX7's only!

Welcome and I hate you.

Seriously, let's get some track events going. Get some side bets too!

Max777 · 11-24-2009, 02:19 AM

I think that what's turning me off to the conversion is not so much the pistons themselves, but the fact that once you go LS1, you lose that special "love/hate relationship" with your car, where you spend countless hours, and an immense amount of money on constantly fixing the damn thing so it runs like it's supposed to...bwahahaha!
