Face,
Not familiar with snowy conditions are you? Put it this way, rear wheel drive in as little as 6" of fresh snow will see lucky to get out of the driveway, depending.
First time in twenty some years they didn't plow our driveway this year and the cars were all stuck in the garage for two days. It sucked!
When we got hammered just around Christmas up here I can't tell you how many cars I saw stranded/stuck.
Stick shifts work well for when you get stuck too, you just have to rock.
But I tell you, even these lifers up here all act like rookies every year when that fresh first fall comes.
When you said a 350 twin turbo stuffed into an RX7, I was going to call bullshit on you. But dude, I gotta say, that's some REALLY nice plumbing work! :thumbsup:
I've got a 1st gen set up for road racing. Those are nice, light chassis. Great lil cars, IMO. How long have you had that one? Have you scared yourself yet?
A lot of people have twin-turbo RX-7's Rey... I'm pretty sure you can get them STOCK twin-turbo..... :dunno:
?
I had no problems driving after the 17" snowfall we got here recently in a RWD Ford,no less.
Sometimes,it's the driver,not the car.

Thanks man. It's a pretty simple set up. I said it was a 350 just to keep things simple, but It's actually a 4th gen LS motor. It's an LQ4, which is a 6.0L LS2 only it's an iron block rather than aluminum (less cylinder distortion, more cylinder wall for boring, less block flex/deflection with the iron block etc). It's bored .030 over from 364ci to 370ci, with a stock 3.622" stroke eagle crank, callies compstar rods, custom cr ceramic coated diamand pistons, ARP studs/bolts through out, Lingenfelter ported and polished 317 casting heads (315cfm int. 250cfm exh.), Inconel ex and stainless in valves, cometic HG's, custom crane cam, Lingenfelter ported LS6 IM and TB. Hot side piping consists of a C6 manifold on the drivers side and a 98 f-body manifold on the passenger side that both face forward. They feed into 2.5" schedule 10 SS piping into twin Precision SC60 60mm turbos with 3" outlets that Y into a 4" down pipe.
Also have a built T56 tranny, and an 8.8" IRS out of the 03-04 Cobras out back with 3.55 gears and driveshaft shop axles and driveshaft.
Just a basic build
