Yep, handling didn't change too much with swapped LSx FDs iv driven a few and didn't see much of a difference... buts rotation changed dramatically in certain driving situations. A buddy of mine in guam did the LS7 swap in his FD, but because of the changed characteristics of the output of the engine and where inertial weight was being transferred, the car couldn't plow into corners like it did with the rotary.
I for one would love a LS FD...its the right kind of sports car for me. And the power output of a light/compact V8 ..cant get any better..But if my backyard was a long sloping downhill, with connecting curves..or if i lived in the boonies with a series mid-speed s curves....an LSx FD would probably not be the best performing car on the block.
