i don't know what i should do. my car is so nice, but i'm wanting to get the weight down, but i don't wanna mess up a sweet ride. the rx7's are 2800 lbs with the LS1.
i can sell my formula (heads/cam/12 bolt, 51k miles, ws6 hood, c5 brakes, recaros, koni's, etc) for $15k. buy a 93-95 rx7 roller for $5000, ls1 motor and t56 for $3000, and have hinson do the conversion for $7500. |

I know this is after the fact, but someone on a local board brought up that adding a LS1 although the same weight will increase the cg height over the rotary engine. How much of a difference is there? I'm curious. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)
