Just curious about the LS1, how is the handling affected by the extra weight? I think it is a bit more heavy than the stock RX7 one. I know that getting 350 HP and torque is sweet! Noticed that it is a pretty popular choice for engine replacement, saw a S2K with an LS1

The LS1 is actually less weight than the stock engine as silly as that seems. The transmission (tremec) T56 is lighter than the original and the engine is slightly less heavy as well. So the weight is reduced and still centered over the front suspension. And yes the power and torque is sweet! Basically will be my drift car.

Then you will get an amazing car!!!
