Re: DSM V8 swaps?

Also what if he took one of those shells that was going to the junk yard? It would be like saving the life of a DSM.

I was just going to say that it would be easier (and cost effective) to swap a V8 into a RX-7 plus I think it would work better in the long run. Swapping it into a DSM could be done and would be different but it would be way too much work and for what?

The dollar value would be the same. 4g63 are known for their free horsepower tricks. Unlike RX-7 engines which are expensive and blow up easy... not very forgiving. 4g63 very forgiving

Switching to a RWD from AWD would be a downgrade unless you wanted to set it up for DRIFT YO!!!!

To much modification and not much reward in the end....
I own a S-10 with a V8 swap and a DSM. I like them for different reason. I don't see the both coming together. I think it would ruin the DSM
