I will run it until she croaks but as this forum as my witness, a VE will replace it.
I cannot afford a crazy big block build but I would throw in either SR16 or some other pistons to raise the C/R to at least 12:1 and get some N1 cams. I think that is all I could afford at my current pace.
But seeing all of these large N/A builds this year has truly inspired me. Yours is just another reason to do the same thing. I cannot wait to see you and your car at the Convention coming up.
