Re: [DMCForum] SAAB 9000T in a D?



HAHA.  Pettit Racing.

They're just a stone's throw from me in Miami.  I called them up a few
weeks ago, they do 3-Rotor conversions for the 3rd Generation RX7.  They
use an afterstock computer (Haltec).  I asked how much it would cost for
them to install it for me.  They said $30k.  

I also found that they know nothing about the 3-rotor harness or stock
components.  They told me that they totally remove the stock harness and
all the emissions equipment, making it legal in 0.0 states.  

I managed to get my hands on a PDF'ed copy of a picture of a schematic. 
Resolution ain't so good, but I'm learning japanese!  spider= black. 
Little guy with black hat = blue.  little guy with white hat = yellow. 
Thanks for looking for me anyway.

Back on topic....
I will admit that my engine conversion went it with the help of a
pitchfork and a 100 pounds of butter.  Nota Bene!  For the people looking
at the porsche g50 transmission- it will fit, though only by moving the
frame forward and "slightly" modifying the rear facia.  The engine is not
that long, and I can not think of an engine that would be shorter
(besides the 2-rotor, I guess....).

that is all.
continue working.
