Many years ago I had a chance to ride shotgun in a super clean LS1 powered FD on an autocross. The owner was a level headed guy, good fabricator and driver. It was a better car than the 13BT powered FD in every way. To this day, I thought it would be a cool swap. Now days though, it would be an emissions legal GM E-ROD in an RX8 with 18x10's, For less than $20k you could have an immaculate, emissions legal 2+2 with 400/400.

Some of us prefer that even our weekend cars actually run all the time, and some of us would really be furious sitting on the side of the road with *insert any of the 5 billion reasons* non-running car. Or needing it towed home in the middle of the night on Saturday
Sorry sweetie, but on MT we prefer impractical, not unreliable

V8 h8ter lives in Phoenix, AZ. The heat has fried his brain, don't take anything he says too srsly.
Ask him to post a pic of the plate going on the dorito car. Might qualify for insta-ban.

I'm too lazy to copy/paste here, but here's the link:

I particularly like the " Bigger fuel injectors and frame rail out of a 94 1.8l" part.

Because the engine started out as a 1.6L it is a free revving engine. This means the car has no rev limiter and can be pushed to or past redline. I however never take it past 6k rpm because thats plenty fast for me.

Oh good heavens that would be wonderful.
I love those engines. They're not particularly power dense, but they do make really nice, linear power and yes sound amazing. Also get pretty decent mileage. My MK3 Jetta GLX got 30 mpg at 85 between san bernardino and SLC.
