What's an Lti motor?

If you don't even know what engine you're talking about... perhaps you need to do some research first. You can't just "drop" any engine into a random car.

i mean lt1

Just buy you an American Muscle car, sell the :rice :judge:

Just byu you an American Muscle car, sell the :rice :judge:
+1 :judge: But if you wish to keep the Rx7 get an LS1.

FC or FD RX-7?

I would for sure keep the RX7 and get a LS1. On ebay you can find the engine, tranny, and pcm between 2500-4500. Ls1 RX7's are bad ass lightweight cars. Theres one around here, a 93 model, stock internals running 11.7's in the 1/4. Thats through manifolds and cats and stock intake.

Same here...Also the weight distribution in an FD with an LS1 is damn near 50/50.

On a side note i find it funny that all the ricers i know find a hard time believing the LS1 with full accessories in only like 50-70 pounds heavier than the rotary.
