3)I think the 'extra' weight is a moot point. Let see and additional 200hp and 235+/- ftlbs of torque are going to out weigh the addtional weight.





you are forgeting one simple fact- Contour were never drag racers- they already have about a 65-35 weight dist to the front- so why add 300 +lbs to the front and make it something compleatly stupid like 70-30?????

If you want a RWD get the Cossie conversion- cost is only about 16K and it is a monster of 500 hp and even AWD! This without adding wight to the front end- in fact it prob evens out the dist to close to 55-45.


so as for me - I think a Cossie SVT would be TITS- but not a V8 one!
