Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Toyota with Ferrari 458 engine swap

[Peter Rychel (dino308gt4]

A friend of mine did a swap with a Coyote V-8 into a "FD"-gen RX-7 (1992). Didn't work out well.

I would be more into dropping a 456 or 550 V-12 into a 360, or something like that (kind of inspired by the old David Goldsmith 308 V-12 conversion of the '80s).
