Mustang (bad chassis) + 20B (bad motor) /= RX7 (great chassis) + LS1 (great motor)

You obviously have never driven a Mustang setup for road racing, and have never driven a 20B powered car.Originally Posted by fcman
Since I have done both, you might want to reconsider your statement.
BTW - I do like the LS1 motor, just would rather have it in a Vette (I like Vettes), and a rotary in the FC.

The stang would have better off with a 4.6 4v and a Kenne Bell or Helion Turbo kit.

Stock for stock the FD is a better chassis; however, it is quite easy and cheap to setup a Mustang for road racing. It really comes down to the driver, the car setup is minimal until you reach higher levels of racing.Originally Posted by fcman
20Bs are no more difficult to work with than LS1s. Both are excellent motors, bit h have their own quirks. For me, it's 6 of 1, half dozen of the other. I just would prefer to have the LS1 in a Vette chassis - Vettes are excellent chassises also.
