With a swap, a builder has the opportunity to succeed where the engineers at Toyota failed, by getting the engine and transmission set back far enough to get the weight distribution they promised us before the car was being sold. |
A builder succeeding where Toyota engineers failed , really did I just read that correctly?
Does the Ram pickup truck have a center of gravity below 18" even though as you say its better balanced, better balanced for what?, spectacular is not measured only in weight distrbution but the sum of the whole,...your omitting much in your comments when refering to what makes a sports car handle.
