STLH Help me choose a engine setup.

Post by Waffles »

Ok, I am searching around for the engine for my RX7 and am sticking with the 302, but I am debating on Carb or Injected.

What do you think and why?

carbed.

What swap kit are you using? I've been looking into a 5.0 in a FC. Granny's make a nice kit for about $1200.

I am going to be using the grannys kit too. But for the 5.0 in the FB with drive shaft its about $350. I dont need the recalibration of all that crap, its all going to be aftermarket.

Sounds awesome. I think you need to post up some picks when you get started with the build.
