Greetings Paul and Brian,
I am going through the conversion process right now...with Steve
Clunn and Grassroots EV. The thing to keep in mind is the "laws of
phyics". Heavier cars mean that it takes more power to propel them.
This translate to less range and less performance. So check your GVWR
on the door...or if you have access to a vehicle scale..even better.
I too would like to see a Top 10 or Top 20 list.
