Not saying anything about power, could make 500rwhp for all i know. But doesnt change the issues of the engine. And don't count Dick or (Shawn) out, they have been there a LONG time.

I wanna do a 2JZ in an American car of some sort, just for the piss off factor. Maybe the late 70s Trans Am like Smokey and the Bandit with the Thunder Chicken on it.

I think a turbo I6 would have more of an awe factor than just a V8 swap that everyone does. Plus I love what a turbo can do for you with a small motor.

Poor oiling of the rods and main journals, head gasket issues, are just the ones I remember off the top of my head. I have to see him tomorrow so i'll ask.

Oh no, it's no secret I have love for the LSx and not ford motors.

Also for the fab work required i'd much rather have 8 or even 10 cylinders
