help me spend money. procharger or another build Hello from TX!
A few years back I dove head first into the LS world by building (with the help of a long time engine builder and friend) a TA. It was my first car to ever work on. I learned a lot and I was definitely overwhelmed. But now I am hooked!
Right now my 01 TA is a ls1. Was going to Procharge it and keep going with the build. My goal originally was 550rwhp. Im at about 420 right now (heads, cam, intake)
But.. my mind keeps going to building an awesome street legal c4 or Miata go kart. I have a 5.3 block laying around with computer harness etc. Would throw that in there.
What is yalls take on a c4 or Miata go kart? Is it hard to ls swap either one?
EDIT: forgot to mention I wanted to keep the budget at around $8-9k

I would do an FC rx7....LOL They hold good power, can be had for nothing and handle with good brakes and is plenty of room for the engine swap. Next....I the C4 isn't a bad idea. Handles good and good brakes.
