5.o and tranny

So just wondering if anyone has a 5.0 and a t5 sittin around. If you do lemme know. I may just do a 5.0 swap in the mazda rx7. Looked into it and for a few hundred it can be done. Grannyspeed.com

i know this is old but.........

A few hundred for the physical swap, but then how much to upgrade parts that the new power breaks???

Seems like it could be a fun project

i mean eve if u buy that entire engine for 125... you can separate it all and profit big time...

My rear can hold up to the 5.0 for a while. As long as i dont dump the clutch shell last. Or put slicks on:) And damssssss thats a good deal for a 5.0 and the harness. Wish i had the room for it:( ill have the money thursday just zero room to throw a motor in

throw it in!!!!!!!!!!

Not as simple as that:( i have to save to move in march. So im not gonna have the time to do it and my 7 is my DD what am i gonna do without it lol

Its alot of work, my freind was doing a ls1 into a miata but he passed away in a car accident last week, were gonna finish the project for him but its ALOT of work.

The 5.0 swap actually isnt that hard. Remove 12A rotary. Flip front cross member 180 buy granny speed motor mounts. Drive shaft and hydralic clutch kit. Install motor and driveshaft.. Hydralic clutch. Plum in a walbro 255. Splice in 5.0 EFI harness. Relocate radiator a lill more forward. Vola 83 RX7 5.0 with T5:)

My cousin had a 240Z with a chevy 350 and that sucker MOVED!!!!!

chris put it in!!!!!

Chris that would be awesome!

I got a cheap 302 5.0 if anyone is interested. I would even trade any good parts for it. Complete engine from carb to oil pan. clutch/flywheel still attach.. make an offer.

Chris you should consider this ^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Well feel free to spread the word. I will trade for cobra upper/lower intake, tubular gt40, mach 1, cobra wheels or etc. e303 or f303 cam
