What V6 are you planning to drop in it?

K-Tune 01-01-14 07:51 PM

I hope it's not a 4.3...

Codysv6rx7 01-01-14 08:16 PM

I like the 1.8 kl but I already had everything to mount the Chevy tranny and motor up so I got the 4.3 and an t5 Iroc z tranny

Told me it would post guess it decided to put it all haha

ZE Power MX6 01-01-14 11:37 PM

Ahh, always want to see a KL swapped 7, but I'm sure the 4.3 is just as badass if not better.

But 1.8? Gotta go with the ZE ;)

Ya I think the 4.3 will give me what I need and I just herd that the 1.8 is easier to build to make it a badass

Any plans for the chassis yet? Suspension set up? Im interested in this, im in the middle of a 5.0 build.

I hope this was a lost cause car to start with. I mean, you didn't take a perfectly healthy rotary engine and rip it out, did you? :)

Looks like a fun build though!

right now I'm leaving it manly stock cuz the weight of the motor makes it sit lower in the front and the struts and spring are stiff enough to handle my kind of driving but I do want to upgrade to coilovers and independent rear someday
