This is my twin turbo kit I'll be selling here very shortly. It's currently in an RX7 so I need to know if this will fit an F-body. Not too many LT1 powered RX7's around I need someone to measure how much room they have between each strut tower. I'm pretty sure there is enough room in front of the engine but side to side some pretty close. It would be great if someoen could help me out on this

Here's some pics. You will notice how close the headers are to the strut towers.

I can tell you by looking it will not fit in any 4th gen powered LT1 car....except an impala/caprice maybe.. F-bodys there is no way...Looks slick though.

It might fit, but the owner would have to do some serious relocations to get stuff to go... if... It's wierd - it looks like the strut towers are farther apart on the 7 then on the fbody...

I'm curious - what's going to happen to the 7?

I've got my engine bay pretty well cleaned out and no engine, I'll go home and take some dimensions and pics for ya.

 

Thanks, that helps me out alot. I'm thinking of going SC for my RX7. I know I won't be pushing as much power, but my goal for weight is 2600lbs so it should still fly

 

do you mind if i ask why you are getting rid of the twins for a SC?

 

the other day he said it was due to heat. twins + LT1 in that confined space. I think he even said people were pointing at him laughing at the heat coming out of the hood.

 

There are alot of reasons I'm getting rid of this setup. One of the reasons as Roadie said is heat. I don't have much underhood room, and the twins make it that much more cramped. BTW, people were not laughing at me Just pointing and wondering if that was normal. No one laughs at me or my car Never had this problem until I got a vented hood, that's when I actually saw how much heat there was.

The main reasons I'm going SC are for simplicity, weight reduction, streetablitly, room, oh and heat
