    Anybody interested in how a 8,4L viper engine fits in an rx7?

    Www.facebook.com/driftlabsweden

    The car was built from shell to driveable car in less than 3 months. (Including lhd conversion)

    it runs a twin turbo setup and rear mounted radiator.

    Last friday it was on the dyno.
    sadly the dyno could not handle the torque.
    Highest measureable readings before the dyno cut out was 900rwhp and 1400rwnm at 0,75bar of boost.

    It doesnt fit..... hence the "chopped" front end lol

    Still epic, but too much fabrication for the DIY drifter lol

    The motor actually fit without cutting the front. But we put the bash bar in to ease maintenance.
    The firewall is also uncut as it needs to be for the swedish regulations.

    Fun fact is that the last car this motor was in was a Volvo 740
