Wow, you are an idiot. Then again that red FD with 1/2 assed horrible aero and shitty wheel fitment is probably just up your alley.

Personally, the swap does nothing for me, but it is your car. Just do us a favor and post pics or w/e when your **** is actually done. We do not need dual airbags.

Good deal sir, I'll keep my eyes open.

Is it a LSx? or an LS1? You just said both. If it's a 5.3L it's not an LS1. LS1s never had and never will have any other displacement other than 5.7L. I'm trying to get this through your thick skull. The more you continue to say this, the dumber and dumber you sound.

No, LS1 has 3.90" bore, and the IRON BLOCK 5.3L has 3.78. That would equal 220 THOUSANDS.

Different cams? You must be going for superoober power. Exactly how many cams do you plan on putting in it?

OK every body, lets all get it in our thick heads. He knows what he is talking about. I mean come on. We showed him all the facts and he still knows better. He just proved to us that we are all morons. We always thought this V style of engine had one cam. He claims it has CAMS. Maybe it might be 2 on each side. . Also he is going to change the fuel rails. We all know he must deff. know that they come with just the rails and he has to put it together. But he has that covered. And of course, who can forget the 220 thousands diff. WHo cares about the three thousands diff. He very well knows how to use a micrometer to measure diff. If its a little off, oh well. He will take the rings and slap them right on there. Then smash in the piston with a hammer. Why dont they fit, they look close enough when I eyed it. . And we all know that he is the person to face all the ring ends in a straight line when he puts them on. Why dont I get any compression. What gives. You just keep on listening to your Buddys over there, and they will keep filling their pockets.

Well, for ****-kicking hicks like us, swapping a cam in an LS1 may only take an hour or three. But when you start talking about swapping the cams in an iron block 5.3L LS1, that's when it gets tricky. Could take days if you're going to do it RIGHT. That must be where he's been.

We had a big fight in the south forum awhile back, he said that his swap was going to be done like that month I think. https://www.rx7club.com/south-rx-7-forum-34/thinking-modding-need-some-help-699175/

There where allot of people near Dallas that wanted to see the car finished so they could beat his car with the rotary power around there, Hell I was going to drive the 5 hours just to smoke him with my FD. But the thread got closed and we kicked him out of the south forum.

He has not realized that he is not making ANY friends on this website.

READ THAT THREAD IT IS WORTH YOUR TIME.

AND I HAVE SAID IT ONCE I WILL SAY IT AGAIN, HE IS POST HOORRING

he only quotes one post at a time, he had like 100 post back in 10-07 now he is up to 650, COME ON THAT IS POST HOORRING

I completely agree with him being an embarassment. I don't see why people don't look into the LS1 more..I know its not for everyone...but cmon...theres a guy on the v8rx7 board going 10's with 398rwhp...thats a CAM ONLY very lightly modded LS1. You have to give credit where credits due. My car will make around 450rwhp on motor before the twin stage.

Hey I am all for the V8 swaps, there is a bad *** FD running like 550hp on spray, But this guy has been talking **** for almost 3 months. Allot of people on here do there swaps and everyone , even the rotary die hards, say that they did a great job.

The problem is how this guy is stuck-up because of his attitude "he is the best and everyone else suxs", that is the only reason that this guy has no friends on here.

People tell him stuff to correct what he is saying, this information is correct, MANY MANY people have been showing him all this hard proof that he is wrong about something and he will not learn from that. He just wants to say they are wrong and he is right because.........

You guys just gonna ignore the idiot.

The problem with this thread exists because someone who thinks he's right all the time ran into someone one who actually is.

"Americancarsareslow" does have an fd and it runs very strong. Hes tired of all the ls1 guys talkn smack on the rotary and tired of ppl sayn the rotary is junk and cant get it done.

BTW: to any of the v8 guys on here, i have a rotary fd street car and am willing to race a street v8 rx7 on the street anytime. ( what im mean by street is its registered to be driven on the street and is untubbed.) Im curious. I respect the effort, time, and money that you guys put into the v8 swap but i just dont really understand it. someone show me why a v8 swap is badass and beat my little baby rotary on the street from a dig or a highway roll. thanks

Funny, I think the only time I've ever seen a V8 guy say anything like, "rotarys are crap" is the TT_Rotary boy. But then again, he doesn't know anything about V8s either....

On the contrary, I regularly see rotary guys bash V8 swappers. This forum is a prime example. Anytime something remotely close to V8 swaps mentioned in a thread, it is either out edited by the mods, or relegated to this "back of the bus" sub forum.

Next time I'm up that way, I'll be glad to take your money. My only rules for racing heads up, is a comparable (AC, PS, full interior, etc), motor to motor, radial to radial. BTW, why don't you race 2MCHPWR? He's up your way and has offered to race you on a track. Or do you not want to race on a track with turns? The big ol turbo sticking in front of your 3 rotor screw up the handling? I'll bet you anything that your engine, fully dressed, weighs 100lbs more than a fully dressed LS1.

I watched your videos.... 10secs? How much did it cost you to get there? Heads & cam on an LS1 FC will dip into the 9s. Pretty common on the v8 board. My FC would run high 10s and I only took me $4k to get the LS1 in the car and running. That includes the price of the car. So, how much did you spend on yours again? Not only that, when you break something, can you go to NAPA and pick up a new part? O, sorry.

Your car looks great, and I'm sure you've spent a ton of money and time on it, but bang for buck, you can't beat an LS1 swap. I've got quite a few rotary friends. We hang, trade parts, go for drives, etc. They call me when they have piston problems, and I call them when I've got rotary or other RX7 problems. Again, I'm not bashing the rotary, if it's your thing, great, stop trolling over here because swappers aren't welcome elsewhere on the board.

I can help you understand it a little better if youd like..from a dead stop or a roll. ..your close to englishtown correct..id much rather take it to the track..rotary/turbo vs. v8/lots of nitrous. You seem like another cocky rotard...judging by your words, after you get beat your excuse would be something like you have 1/3 the motor... oh btw my car is street driven and registered so it counts as a street car.


Americancarsareslow is a complete douche bag. Im not a cocky guy at all but id have no problem putting my money where my mouth is with him. Hes an immature C U-Next-Tuesday kinda guy. And im not saying rotaries are junk..I respect anything thats put together nicely and runs fast..im just saying that putting the LS1 in this car only has positive (mechanical) effects. The only downside it has is..well there really arent any and any diehard rotary fan who says they are **** are just idiots who havent looked into it enough.




P.S If we race it will be on camera and posted on every single RX7 board reguardless of the outcome.
