Very vague question. Are you looking for power or economy? What is your budget? Is it going in a stick or auto? Give lots of info and you will likely get tons or replies.

6K is a good budget. Especially if you do most of the work. If not a crate engine is a quick easy way to get your wish.

NO I THINK THEY ARE THE SAME PERSON. MAYBE HE HAS AN ALTER EGO HE LIKES TO POST STUPID **** WITH AND THE OTHER THAT LIKES TO CONTROL THE ANARCHI BECAUSE HE CARES ABOUT THE REST OF US. I DONT KNOW ABOUT THAT BUT I DO KNOW ONE THING. I SURE LOOK COOL TYPING LIKE THIS. CHECK ME OUT.

We forgot to say goodbye.




I don't know about you Guido, but if 'anarchi' ever showed up around here I may feel compelled to put a bullet through it's head. I'm glad 'anarchi' can be controlled via a DOS based computer.

Thank you, thank you very much. We are here all week. The hot air boy can be routinely found on the power adder forum, and I... well just follow the alcohol and you'll probably find me.
