Interested in complete 5.0L/T5 or LS engine or similar if you want to swap. Prefer cash outright.
This would motivate an NA Miata nicely.....
...or a Pinto.
...or my DMC-12. A Renesis was my original choice to put in it if I ever decided to swap out the PRV for something more powerful since they were originally supposed to have a rotary engine. Were it closer and a bit cheaper I'd have to seriously consider whether I wanted to stick with the supercharged 3800 I have now for it or go with the Renesis.
hmmm... This would probably be easier than the 3400 V6 swap I have been thinking about....
Oh oh oh. Do I get a discount since I guessed right?
Might be a good idea to get a compression test done before pulling it? You'd get a very decent amount of money for an engine with good compression.
Fortunately my wallet is safe as I'm not able to pick it up

I know genuine low mile engines with recent compression tests sell for upwards of $1500-2000 which is why I started my pricing where I did. If I can cover the cost of replacing the drivetrain then I'm in a great position!
Harbor freight compression tester + video of the test = ebay that sucker for more. Wonder if you could find a rusty 5 speed supercoupe
In reply to patgizz:
I have a 5 speed supercoupe. It was my challenge car in 2014. Not rusty though.
In reply to patgizz:
Not trying to derail the thread completely, but regular compression testers are at best vaguely indicative of rotary engine compression. Even when they're modified...
Updated! Lightweight flywheel still available
On an unrelated note who has a line on a cheap old style 4.3l torque converter and a small bolt pattern LS flexplate?
