I guess it's just a matter of if you want to pay more money and go slower... just to be different.


Personally, I've been thinking of finding a rover v8 and making a V8 GN on and off for years.

That is a great idea--talk about a good way to pick up a bunch of cubes!

Going back to Friday's discussion, Jay, my car is totally apart so getting it to the track this year is probably not going to happen. I worked on some chassis stuff this past weekend. The 5200 "streetable" converter was a bit of tounge and cheek. I probably could (and will) but I don't think it is daily driver material.

89Turbo. Holy Hell! 9200 RPM?!? I bet it sounded like a bee on crack! I think my feet would have been crawling back up into my legs with a 9200 RPM clutch drop. Sounds extremely crazy and kind of fun. I think the production stuff would be more limited to 7000 RPM but we will see.
