Whats the smallest/lightest car an lsx has been swapped into? I think the best swap ever would be a lsx in a geo metro. I would like to do it before i die, but not soon lol. anyone done it?

I`m not sure which is the smallest and lightest, but there is the mini cooper, a honda civic, and a chevette roaming around with a LSx series engine in them.

and I got it down to 11.5 at 120mph in the 1/4. with 1.7 60' times.
in about two weeks, it's slicks, and a 150 shot. going for low 10's

The Mini cooper was an original mini cooper.. not the new ones.. Those cars as far as I know are around 1500lbs.. so that would deff make it the lightest swap I've seen.

And I've done LS1, LS2 & LS6 in Fieros,



but the Mini might be the thing. Is that Mini or the honda a FWD?

650kg?

Keith

650kg x 2.2 = 1430lbs.

chris-m

pretty intense i expect with 1430lbs and that much power. :-)

There is a Geo Metro in western Illinois that runs a turbo'd 3.8 that goes high 8's.

LS2 V8 Miata

I guess mine is small, but not that small.

You guys seen the "Hoss Fly" it's a Chevy V8 Barstool. It's a Chevy 350, but common sense says it's only a matter of time 'till somebody does an LSX, eh?

An LSX would be a natural, since when you sat on it a carb wouldn't be up your butt, however the coil-packs could tickle your thighs when you rode it!
