i had an rx7 and wanted to do that swap, but i lived in apartments then. neighbors would freak about working on ur car blah blah blah. so i ended up selling it.
whats involved in the swap? just curious cuz i see these cars all the time for sale cheap! ;)

there is not to much involved, i just bougt the radiator and brackets, engine cradle, and trans mount from www.grannysspeedshop.com basiclly the deluxe kit they have it gives you all the stuff to get started, the hard part is exhaust unless you know some one that will do some shops here in utah wont even touch it i am not sure about where your at, i finally found a guy on the local rx7 forum to do it. and fitting a fan in there i put mine in the front of the radiator. but other than that grannys gives you all the swap instructions.

actually...

302 swaped into an RX7 isn't quite unheard of... in some areas common actually...

its a straight foward swap... and It helps that mazda and ford are more or less the same platform...

Can't say I've ever see one though...

What did you do so far as drive train?

ya there is more and more people doing it now, the chevy actually fits a little better cause it sits lower and further back due to oil pan difference, but i just used a t5 trans and modified my drive shaft, and i have stock diff out of a gxl model they had a lsd in them.
