My current project for this year is to put an LS3 into an RX8. Bought one with a sad engine for very little and have since bought a brand new crate LS3, T-56 and engine, transmisson etc mount kit. Just need to finish another engine and then it is on like Voltron


Aren't RX8s one of the worst chassis to put ANY engine in other than the rotary?

ie. There's just no room in there.

Looking forward to seeing this happen!

Didnt one of Danny's friends threw and LS in a rx8 a couple of years ago and had it at the open day. Said it was pretty easy.
If it wasn't a rx8 it was a NC but I didn't think so.

^it was an rx8. IIRC it went together really easily.
