Yeah that is something I have always wondered. A few people tell me they are not FWD friendly, but have never actually given me a good excuse why.
Can anyone clear up this issue with a good old fashion technical explanation?

Thanks
Ben

Re: Motor build....HELP!!!!

All the added torque and only the fron wheels to plant the power leads to hella traction issues even wil an lsd. The reason its a problem with a stroker is because they make all their power in lower rpm ranges. IMHO you would be better off building a higher revving 2.0L or a destroker

Take the SRT-4 for example... 2.4L with a 16g = No traction. My friend has a '04, factory with an LSD and he cant get traction for anything and it is just stock.

Imagine having twice the power. I thought you had AWD. Guess I didnt pay much attention. Definately go the 2.0 route. The added lag will save you in the end.
