Larry I had to send this to the list... just couldn't stand it... Your
right.. this is about Hot rodding and I have tons of those motors laying
around and my Bugeye Race car isn't getting any faster sitting on the

what about a 2.3 turbo motor set up as is... stuffed into a bugeye? sound

Wait this isn't getting me a record over two hundred yet... or is it?
Bench racing.... is what us East Coast folks do best...
FOCUS KEITH.... I know it's easy to get off on tangents in life... but
sometimes they are just such fun..... K
