Yipes... and imagine all the work that would have to be done beefing up the tranny too, that could get expensive. At least I don't think the stock tranny on a 8 could handle the torque of an LS1??

Putting down over twice the torque of the renesis in an RX8 would be a helluva good time though!!!

You wouldnt use our tranny. You'd use the chevy transmission.

20b swap would be the most reasonable engine swap if you ask me.

still has the same basics as the 13b just with 1 more rotor.

654cc x 3 = (1,962cc) 20b displacement

so its basically a 2.0 litre naturally aspirated engine making somewhere around 300hp if i stand correct on my estimation
