lol a lot of people say that but with minimal mods those things can be good runners. Uncle drove one for 3 years never broke down, dad owned and built 3, never left him stranded besides flat tires.

External oil cooler, electric fan setup, electronic ignition, add an extra oil filter, upgrade alternator. It's not going to be my "race car" Just my everyday, drive 10 miles back and forth to work. I don't need a 5.0 to do that. The SVO is going to be getting taken apart in the next couple weeks, in the meantime i already got a 76 datsun truck as a backup car. So I'm thinking i should be set.

Yup my uncle had one, rolled it in a parking lot and was always working on it. Neighbor had one that he couldnt go a few days without wrenching on, you're talking about alot of expensive mods that do little for performance that wont need to be done to another vehicles, just sayin. Maybe look into a cheap maxima or something
