07 Ls2 + 94 Rx7 Hi dudes,
Guess Its my turn to finally start this progress thread. The car is a 94 white FD PEP model. 84k chassis miles. use to have 471whp with a single turbo street port set up. That lasted 7k miles
. That brings me to the LSX world. After taking a ride in LS1240z's FD I was pretty much hooked. It took me about a year of thinking before I decided to go this route.
The engine I'm dropping in is an 07 LS2 out of a Vette. It has 3 miles on the motor and is basically brand new. Got it from a guy that bought 2 of them from a Hong Kong race team that purchased 4 vettes and pulled the motors out of them. The cars were bought locally here in the bay area and shipped out to HK. I'll be using Hinson's equipment for this project.
So far my progress has been good. I'll let the pics do most of the talking.
When the rotary was in her.
Pulling parts begin.
Motor coming out.
Paper weight anyone?
My good friend Kevin. Can't do this without this guy.
