Weight and balance of FD with LS1

Its been forever since I've been on the forum, but for those who are interested, fellow forum member RX7Heaven Jonathan did me right with a new coilover install and some corner balancing last night.

For those who wonder about the change of weight and balance with the LS1 installed, its safe to say there is none. This is with a 1/4 tank of gas, no one inside the car, after one height adjustment to the front coilovers. Good stuff!

Car has A/C and power steering. After this photo was taken we went up on the RF ride height a few turns and brought the Cross to 50.3% and the split across the front to within 15lbs as well. The car scaled out very nicely. I think even nicer than mine!!!

Nothing new really. This was proven many years ago. There are threads on the topic in this section, the Race section and Suspension section.
