Yah, but carrying weight reduction that far tends to reduce the hp in the weight/hp part of the equation.

What are you doing that required the engine-ectomy? (I'm very pleased that all I need done this winter is a simple LSD replacement.)

So, where did the 3.8 come from? Did you build it or buy it complete? If it was complete, is it an RS engine or built to RS specs?

Cheers, George

M64/21 RoW that I had rebuilt to full RS spec and was in my '76 C3. It was way too much motor for the chassis and trans.

This will complete the major portion of the work to make a 993RS clone
