True, i've just rebuilt the engine and have only done 100 miles or so in it. i was thinking of a new cam and stage one kit for a while then just going for it. i don't use the car everyday, and surely it's got to be fun???? Does your friend have much trouble with his? how often does it blow up??

Woooo, 1000 miles that's not far. if it lasted 10,000 miles i could live with that.... if it's going to need a rebuild that quickly then it's a no go.....this is the kind of thing that the salesmen won't tell you, which is why i ask... by the way who is stuart????
