Default LS1 swapped RX-7 vid, idle and 1/4mile pass
TSIA, this is Craig Thornhill's LS1 swapped RX-7, M6. There are a few pics, idle vid, and a 1/4mile pass in this vid. Very nice looking ride.

Right-click and save-as: http://www.lsxtune.com/vid/craig.wmv

Nice sleeper.

Motor sounds great. Do you know what mufflers he is using?

I don't think that there is a muffler, just some pipe...

That's one badass car. I love ls1 swaps. Especially Evo and Rx-7s. And that's no sleeper, you can tell that thing is fast.
