I say "Butchering" because some "hard core" Legends guy's may consider it so. (I've caught flak for it in 1v1 in person conversations..)
I've made it known here and there, I plan on using either a modified "stock" engine, or a different engine all together and adding a power adder. (GSXR, ZX14, Hyabusa come to mind) If I decide to use another engine what will I have to change? Engine mounts? Transmission mounts? Gear? Anything your aware of?
Since right off the word go, I plan on tearing it down for paint & upgrades ("possible" engine change).
What do you think with your experience in working on them, I would be better off starting with? A running car? A Rolling (with body) Chassis? A bare (no body) Rolling Chassis? I've got a full two car garage I'm working on turning into a shop, specifically for working on the car. I've got the room to store parts, body, etc etc..
