    Awesome

    It reminds me of the FOCUS V8 351 YouTube - 351 V8 Ford Focus
    I did a search before and in the US they have kits off the shelf to do the above mod.

    They actually have KITS you can get to do that? It'd be a major job, considering the Focus is FWD and all...i wonder how they'd go about getting it road legal.

    pffft has nothing on the dyson rotary built 20b 350z.

    Now that looks like fun.

    Sounds kickass to boot and barely hitting the throttle

    More than one, its a normal conversion over there, and has been done here from what i understand. The LSx block fits nicely in the engine bay and coupled with the 1100 odd kg body they go quite nicely.
    I used to play sports. Then I realized you can buy trophies. Now I’m good at everything.

    Why bother though? I'd rather a 20b twint urbo in an Rx7 over any LS series engine thats for damned sure...i miss my rotors

    Sure, the 20b TT are nice engines, but have you priced a build on one to get it to make some serious power and torque?

    Plus, by putting an LSx motor in a rotor powered car, it pisses all the traditionalists off. The bang for your buck on an LSx is better than that of a 20b TT, plus, the dont need to be rebuilt nearly as often, and arnt nearly as tempremental. And, the availability of on LSx block also adds to the why not list.

    20b's can make huuuuuge amounts of power, but you have to get your mitts on a 20b before you can do that, and then find someone who has the right expertise to build it properly.

    I would love one of both really, but i reckon ill find it easier to get my mitts on an LSx and get it into an rx7, than to find a reliable 20b and get that into one
