It looks like a stock 302 (witch I love) but unfortunately its not lol Never judge a book by its cover is what some friends of mine say about it. Only 3-4 people actually know what it is and i like it like that I'll just say the only thing stock on it is the Intake Mani and Tranny. I don't have pics on this computer but I'll post some soon.

What heads are you running? They can't be that great considering you were asking about GT-40x's not too long ago.

They are stock heads.i had them redone last year and milled and ported. They flow way better than stock. I did have the flow chart to compare but it long gone now. They might have 5,000 miles on them.

So you're probably making 240rwhp with an aftermarket cam. Should be good for low 13's/high 12's with a driver mod in that little second gen RX-7.

Im thinking 240 is kinda low for the 11.5 1/4 mile run last year. Here is a couple pics from the other day.





This is from last year. Im the second car. All these Rx7's have v8s, mostly Ls 6 spd swaps and 350's and a bad *** mopar 343 that dynod at 750rwhp w/150 juice plate.



Every one of these cars ran 12's or better last year. The 343 rx7 was the fastest, I think he ran a 9.8is 1/4 mile, the crazy part is the guy almost daily drives it lol


285 rear's with 245 front's



Thats all I got for now. As soon as the weather gets nice more is sure to come.
