A while back I had made plans to do this and Kwanza hit me with a few questions that I had to look into such as the crossmember and steering system, well I checked around and the F-Body Camaro seemed to be a good candidate for parts without having to make all of my parts from scratch. Well long story short I picked up a Camaro a couple of weeks ago and also got a running (and smoking) RX-7 FB for good measure (and $400). The Camaro is in to good a shape to be tearing apart so I will use it as a measuring board and see what comes about. It might take me forever but the thing is getting done regardless if I stick to my original parts plan or not.

Have you guys ever seen that show tuner transformation on speed channel. They put a Toyota truck's engine and dive train in a Toyota paseo.
QUOTE If they can take a Focus and put a 305 in it and make it rear drive, then you can do it to a Celica. What motor you going to use? My buddy has started a project where he is putting a ford 302 in his Zx3, so I think it can be done. Good luck with the swap -------------------- 7a-fte in progress
still need a manifold, fuel pump, greddy e-manage, and oil lines / water lines |
