Saleen cheaped out on parts for most of his builds, just bad quality you should look at the new stuff they aren't even trying to hide it any more. fit and finish is terrible.
but in my case it was suck up a qrt. of oil every 500 miles and it had rod knocks and random missfires and rebuild cost for that motor was $10,000. so it was time to go.

Odd, interior being subpar is just a mustang thing. The engine thing is weird, usually the PJ mustang run hard. And i'm not sure who quoted you 10k for a rebuild on a 3v, Pacific Engine charges $1200...

actually the inter. was fine but check out the body panels on some of the new stuff . As for the engine PJ stroker 302's were very different from a stock 4.6. I looked into rebuilding it myself but it was getting close to that price in parts so thats when I said it's time to go

Still dont see how it would be even remotely close to that. A 5.1l stroker doesnt even cost that kind of coin.

Awesome pics!

I put this Derailers. Should have put them here.

Some pics from my recent trip to the home islands.

The ice ball in this Shochu is hand carved each day. It has no bubbles of any kind. The picture doesn't capture it, but it creates a kind of subtle and beautiful light effect.









Simply the best Soba I've ever had, by a mile.



Soba Shochu.



A kind of Soba miso paste. Awesome!




A little video from the Shinkansen. Next time I'll get some video as they go through the station which is much cooler. Click through and go to YT for full screen if you want.
