Thanks for the tip. I checked out the product that was mentioned. Looks
ok, but I think I'll test it out in a car that isn't in such excellent
shape (POS car). I'll freshen up the head at the shop and change the gasket.

What was I thinking? Can't beat V8 power.

As for the twisties, I've always had a hard on for Volkswagens: GTI's,
Rabbits, etc. Only the motors can be a little troublesome.

well, the gt I'd belive that of, but a mustang cobra is a pretty fast car...
and I don't know of too many 4 cyl cars that can beat it unless they are
just over the top.

if you modified it with even half the stuff you put on a daewoo to beat a GT
you would have tons of hp...

also nice fish tanks, the mystery blue and white stripped fish is called
pseudotropheus elongatus, it is from lake malwai.

Howzit right back to ya, Fish!

You have several choices. You can reinstall an origional F22B2 engine_which
will take a computer changeout. You can install a single OHC VTEC, F22B1
engine. Will need to changeout the computer and run three new wires from
computer to VTEC solenoid on engine. You can get exotic and install one of
the dual OHC VTEC H22 engines_will need to changeout the computer and
exhaust manifold. The engine supports should lineup exactly for whichever
version you choose.

Would suggest you contact several of the JDM engine companies for the
replacement engine. Will find much cheaper and engines are very reliable.
