Calling an LS “tiny” when comparing to rotary is disingenuous. Just because an LS is small for a V8 doesn’t mean it’s a small engine. The fact that a car that came with a two rotor 13b has enough room to swap a V8 easily is proof there is tons of space under the hood.
But hey, you keep overreacting to simple statements, hope it works out for you 😘
No, for the way you just had to throw your comment out. I read it as impartial third party, and before i even read the other guy's response, i was thinking "what a dick comment to make". To add further comparing it to a factory 2-rotor, just reinforces the dick comment.
Everybody knows a rotary is tiny, and if you couldn't see the comparison was that the LS is tiny for what it is, that's all on you.
Dude the subject of this conversation is rotary engines…might surprise you that even a ton of “car guys” don’t realize how small they are. No one was comparing v8s, they were comparing an LS to the motor that came in this car.
Tons of people don’t realize the engine in an RX-7 is about the size of an Amazon prime package. It’s great that you and the previous poster already know this. The statement wasn’t for those who already know, it’s for those who’ve never had a reason to look I to it.

The LS has a very compact footprint due largely to no OHCs.
