50/50 weight distribution doesn't guarantee that the car will handle like a beast. It's likely that it WILL handle great, but the weight distribution is only one factor. Suspension, total weight, and tires are the other factors. But I agree, that it's very likely that it will be a canyon monster.
The FD with an LS1 was an unbeatable canyon car. Interesting enough, the FD's motor must have weighed quite a bit because an LS1+t56 in a FD added only 47Lbs to the car WITH A/C still installed. Not sure what that means about those motors, but I can tell you that either the trans or the motor weighed a LOT more than some RX-7 guys are willing to admit. I know this because we have a guy that occasionally comes out to our meets with an LS1'd FD. It has a T56 trans and that thing is REALLY fast. **BRING ON THE FLAMING!**
