Not to mention it will have to be ported beyond anything we would consider sane, and the cams you'd have to run... oh my.
A 10 second all motor car is probably going to cost a lot more then you'll ever be willing to spend. We're talking a seriously built I4, you might as well buy a new house.
The del Sol wouldn't be my first choice of chassis', either. It is a lot easier to make an 1800lb chassis run 10's then it is to make a 2500lb chassis do the same.
Cliff's notes: I don't think you quite realize how fast and expensive a 10 second car is, especially an all-motor.
actually I've been talking to my Honda buddies here in town, and my mechanic has an all motor CRX doin 11's. I had already planned on Toda cam gears, camshafts (spec b), and valve springs. Header is next on the list.
