Edit: dumb question if you don't have a car. I would recommend a CRX or 92-95 Civic hatchback shell. they can be pretty cheap and someone can correct me if im wrong, but i believe they are the lightest
Actually it might serve as double duty haven't really decided to be honest. Maybe just street for the moment, or until I can get some more money under my belt. And thanks man like I said I've had time to practice with the other forums I am on.it's no fun at still being chewed out on your intro for half assing it and giving no information.lol

After making this thread yesterday I went and found a shell for 300 bucks, it's a 95 civic ex coupe. I appreciate you trying to help out bro.

welcome!

But I do have to ask why the switch from a v8 rwd to a 4 cyl fwd?

Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car and oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car.
Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall, torque is how far you take the wall with you.
Hope this helps

Yes I own 2 slow red chick cars & 1 real car!

Well I had an accident in the Trans am and could find a ls1 for the price I wanted to pay and I also want to get into forced induction, and on top of all that I needed a car.lol and thus route ended up being cheaper for me. Plus since I was younger I have always had this thing for Hondas.

Thanks man, I guess I need to start taking pics I have the engine on a stand with the head of getting new gaskets and the shell sitting right by it needing wet sanding and some odds and ends taken care of. So it's under way.
