motor fixing it .. but better than putting an LS in it

That's what keeps the sport unattainable as far as track days are concerned… the costs are just prohibitive for many folks. But I see guys out at the track events that you know are struggling to be there - but they have the desire… and while they may not have the fancy paint job or trailer - some of 'em are hard to pass! I give kudos to those folks. They're out doing what they love.
