Keep in mind this car was NATURALLY ASPIRATED NOT A TURBO, so even if i did go with a rotary, it would have cost a shit load of cash, and i wouldn't be able to cruise up a big hill at 2,000 in fourth gear. Also, speed parts are cheaper, and they do more. So, if you don't like it TOO FUCKIN BAD CUZ I LOVE IT! And for some of you assholes complaining about my stereo, it's good enough for my budget (Kappa 10" for $45 with box installed, all by me of course), and i posted my car on CARDOMAIN NOT SOUNDDOMAIN.

Yes that is a 350 under the hood, actually a 355 (bored out). Believe it or not we are still under 2000 in doing this swap. The original engine went at 70,000 and it was either this or another wankel. And believe it or not, this was cheaper than if we went with another wankel. We actually have torque now too!! And it also passed CT emissions.

A message to those who bash my car: I'd like to see you get a NA wankel to this power for under 2000. Hell, I'd like to see it done period.
