New rx7 owner no v8/no rotary pictures added

Hey my name is Eric i just picked up a 87 Mazda rx7 with a 88 2.3 ford Thunderbird turbo coupe swap. Im not really new to cars before this i have had a few others i just sold my 95 240sx that i sold to pick this up. I wanted a FC for awhile and when i saw this ad i kinda jumped on it. right now there are a few things that need to be cleaned up such as the wiring/radiator setup. i will get pictures as soon as possible of the engine bay for those who are curious. So far its a basic stock swap with fmic/3in exhaust/alittle more boost/ and a turbo 2 rear end

Uh...yeah. Like Chinese food, it's great if you like that kind of stuff. And I've defended engine swaps in other posts. The mods are apparently fine with it, but this is a sub-section of the MAZDA ROTARY FAMILY forum.

I love engine swapped rx7's, such a good platform for many different engines

-turbotim youve pretty much done the swap im planning on eventually the 2.3 is great and all but i want an engine that i can be competitive with later on, im gonna be possibly swapping a 5.0 into the car for this season and see how i like that. but im also debating on so many other swaps at the moment such as sr20,1jz,2jzna-t
