Hey I say go for it. If you can get the plane going and loose some weight it would definitely be a win win. A light Series 2 with good strong engines, pod, and P-tips would have enough performance with a larger guy. Much like Tyler however you have the leg and headroom issue. The Lazair was design and built by a couple of skinny limber kids and a short college professor. Creature comfort for "normal" size guys was never addressed. This is why you see a few planes that were modified by customers to give a bit more leg room.
