You’ll have plenty of say in it when the time comes. I’ll be coming by to chat with you and Mike pretty often I’m sure.

While I have much love for FD’s, and would probably never do what you’re about to do when I get one, I understand your reasoning behind it. It will be a fun car when done.
To my understanding, this doesn’t throw off the near 50/50 weight balance of the car either, right?

According to Hinson, it doesn’t. I haven’t seen many other good cornerweight numbers, but these should be legit.
The aluminum GM LS1 and LS6 engines are extremely light power plants. With the complete removal of the 13B and the sequential turbo assembly, the project car’s final weight is less than the total gross vehicle weight of a stock Mazda RX7. The final weight of the car is listed below. The car weighed 2,831lbs with a full Touring interior, sunroof, complete Bose sound system including the “Sound Wave,” and a 1/4 tank of gas.
LF: 746
RF: 677
Total Front: 1,423 lbs
LR: 678
RR: 733
Total Rear: 1408 lbs
I’m not sure what they removed other than the Bose system.
