I've heard of those conversions before. Definitely takes the rotary rx-7 into a new performance realm with only a minimal cost in the handling dept.

There's also a few owners of 240Z's who've done a similar LS1 swap.

One of my good friends dropped a chevy motor in his genII and it's one of the fastest street cars in Columbus. He just got it all put together (finally) over the Summer and blew his clutch on the first run, and ran an 11. He's got just under 1khp to the wheels n/a.

btw that guy with the red one is a member of www.teamfc3s.org. I knew I recognized it from somewhere.
