Project: putting a real motor in a RX-7

Z Brown's LS 4.8 tear down.

Gary's hard work.:icon_santa:

Cool stuff, will be interesting to see it come together.

Lag monster? I would have thought that with the relatively big cube motor it should spool that pea shooter pretty well? Faul's gonna be spooling a S480 with a 1.32 a/r T6 with his little 183 cid. There is a pic of his setup in the dictionary under the definition for lag.

[zbrown]

[zbrown]

happy pants once again !

[Grr]

mmmmmmm, thats sexy! Now if i would just post up pictures of that nice cam i have sitting here...

[Christian]

What is the specs of the cam?

[Grr]

Its a comp XR265
212/[email protected]
.525 lift
114 LSA
Not very big, but should be pretty much perfect on a 4.8, and more so as a turbo cam.

Got some accomplished today. Cut 1.7" out of the oil pan and welded back together, installed the cam, and Jason got the black sprayed on the motor and trans.
