Rust is not an issue (suprisingly) just grime.

Taj, you are doing WHAT? Why not get a 7MGE crate motor from japan for 600.00 and do a swap. You can get them out of Denver I think. Go to the supra forums, and I'm sure there's a website somewhere. My son has my old one with less than 40K miles on it. The car has 120K I think. The only thing you really have to worry about with Supra's are head gaskets blowing.
I know I know, rotaries don't have them
surprisingly, 7m engines love to blow their head gaskets
and ever seen "oil in sparkplug wells?" that too
I go to the supra forums, but they are not like you guys and dont really like rx8s or 7s very much either.
and I read your post and just found the head gasket part
and I won't re-edit my post cus I'm lazy like that
besides, I already have an REW in my house anyways, so might as well no?

Whoa---- I knew about traction and eliminating wheel hop etc... but this thing still needs to be a daily driver; so I guess Wheelies are out..... ah well.
I really wanted to do an LS1 as well; but $$$ wasn't there; espeically when you add in the ECU et-al needed. So this one is more of a budget build and less of a drag monster.... but still 400+ Hp in a street car isn't so bad!
