Every Windsor ever made is "roller compatible."  Some you just have to retrofit the lifter spider.


unless you own a turbo ls9 rx7 you do not know what the fuck you are talking about.

Curious to see what you put together.  I'm in Fort Wayne as well, I'd like to see it when it's done.

Fort Wayne is a hotbed of motor swap shenanigans.

Sounds good. It won't be pretty (outside) but should be done well.

Yours is black right?......I've heard of you  :drive:

Traded for this gem  :barf: today.

Pretty solid other then some bad surface (thank goodness) in the engine compartment and some lot rot on the driver side floor board. (Easily fixable)

Anyone tell me what engine was in it? Title says model c331

Anyone want a trans? Was told it worked in 03 when it was parked.
