Why not?
You can dress a pig up as race horse but it's still a pig.
Haha I expected someone to react like this. Thing is, I've seen some pretty convincing pigs in my time. I like ham sandwiches, pork chops, and bacon. So instead of buying an overpriced horse, I'll stick with my little piggy that'll go wee wee wee wee all the way home, but do it really fast.
Thanks TRBOPWR; sleeper is what I aim for. I love the technology involved with the turbo, and I believe the whole 350, 455 business to be overdone. MPG is always a plus, especially with Alberta enacting new gas laws that will see 5% ethanol added to our pumps.
Being a university student, the funds are tight. So instead of spending $70 000 on a GNX, or $25 000 on a GN with comparable mileage/condition, I’ll just transplant the powerhouse from a dead car.
I was thinking becoming a member of the local GN board was the best way to deal with people who have experience (more than I do at least) with these motors, and might be there to help with a few part searches (which is actually already the case with TRBOPWR).
