Should i rotary swap my NA
Hi,
currently i have a 1.8 NA with a ebay gt30. i have a 13B laying around and was wondering if i should put it in. What do you think? |
no
|
i could swap over the gt30 to the 13b and make a reliable 350hp would make the drivetrain 100x simpler
|
Sounds like you already figured it out. Good luck have fun.
|
An engine and trans swap is way simpler than using the engine and trans designed for and already installed in the vehicle.

i was asking if i should do it, hoping someone knows what a 13b swaped miata is like. i never had a rotary before and im woried it will have 0 bottom end and wake up at like 7 k rpm which isn't what im going for.the only reason im considering this engine is because i recently got one really cheap and always thought a miata is like a baby rx7.

Subscribed. I'm wondering if this guy should do it also. Does anyone know?!
|
In 4 actually reliable 350HP 13b
|
I got a free chevy 454 last week. I'm worried it'll have too much low end and nothing up top, which isn't what I want in my track Miata. But it was free and I've always thought of the Miata as a baby Cobra. I've swapped 1.8s on a Miata before, it's not that bad, so this should go well.
|
Pffft. Talk to me when you have a Packard V-1650 Merlin out of a P-51 Mustang.
|
i just don't understand why everyone is making fun of this idea. i'm going to swap the 13b into some car anyway and was considering a miata.
yes i do understand that rotary engines are now known to be reliable but this one is in very good condition and i know it will survive street driving. if not a miata i will find another chasis and leave my miata as it is. |
hey guys, should i pay my mortgage this month?just wondering your thoughts

Pls post reliable 350whp rotary formula it would be a great help
|
solid dowels and a good tune.
|
anyways if it blows up its a small simple engine. throw in some new seals and your good.
