the near 50/50 weight ratio of the fc is preserved with the ls engine in it, with about a 52/48 f/r weight ratio in the end.

so everything that makes the fc so great of a platform, is preserved.
yes, jan, i have done the blasphemy of eradicating the soul of the rotary,
but i just feel sooooo good about it, haha

Really? I thought the fc was only perfectly balanced because of the tiny rotary set so far back in the chassis. with a bigger motor hanging out farther and wider it still maintains a very close 50/50? wonder what the s13 with an LS1 would be at...
