not a vast difference, its a quarter lighter!!!
In the overall scheme of an engine swap the extra 100lbs probably equates to carrying a passenger all the time, as the weight of the engine is pretty far back, so with suitable springs/dampers on the front and a decent corner weight setup i cant see a big problem.
you try and shed 100lb elsewhere in the zed. You will struggle. if it doesn't make any difference why not have passengers in all racing cars.
Why not indeed!
But then who was talking about racing cars?
I thought we where talking about weight distribution, and the difference the extra 100lbs would make to that, if its power to weight, then i think the extra 100 odd BHP and the more important 200 odd ft lb of torque would more than make up for it
it equates to the same thing, power to weight ratio. I explained the racing car angle for you to try and simply understand. Clearly you haven't.
