Fc Or Fd Better Chasis For Building A Drag Car?
#31
I'd say it depends on what you consider a drag car. You talking about a car running 10's, 9's 8's 7's or what? Does it need to be streetable? I personally would go with the FD just because I think it'll weigh less when striped down.....couse like I said I "think" haha
Other than that, its the same engine, your going to be using the same turbos setups, same computers, same tuning, same fuel system. You can pretty much put the same rear ends and transmissions in either one.
I also agree that the 1st gen would prob be best though if you consider it, i think it'll weigh even less than the FC or FD when striped, I think the 79 model was only like 2300 or something crazy like that when stock!!!!

Actually you might could even hit a real high 9's on slicks. And you can just throw in a old Stang rear end, it'll take most any abuse a rotary can dish out.
