Most of the 1st gen guys know me, been in the RX7 club for 6 or 7 years, not impressed with the direction it's taken.

Hope us V8 guys don't get hammered in here like we do in the RX7 club, we still have information to offer and in my case have owned and raced rotary engined cars for the past 15 years

Nope, we LOVE V8 RX-7's just as much as Rotary ones

Check out the ET List, special classes just for you guys. Pics/info on your swapped 1st Gen?

As requested, outside, old engine and new engine, engine has come along since then, getting closer

Looks great! 302 with Trick Flow heads and a Holley Systemax? I'm still in the SBF/Windsor world. Staying injected? 331/347 stroker or still 302? T5?

Any pics of the GRM Challenge car? (I'm P71 on the GRM Board as well) A buddy and I are teaming up to build an 84 TBird for the $2009 Challenge (his car, my 302) since they said it would be on the West Coast.

I'm aussiesmg there, your thread sent me here...lol

The GRM rx is stored until the weather breaks, got it for $10 with GSL-SE suspension, engine is getting put back together.

First chance I've got to see the V8 swap. Sadly it has to be in pictures. That looks like one mean machine. Maybe some day I'll be able to switch shifts and start meeting up with you guys again. I miss having some rx guys to hang out with. Just don't flame me for driving a winning blue 8 now, lmao.

This is Dustin by the way (Normality_Glitch over at the other place).
