I only know of 1 1g in MN that walked and only because it was a big deal. Bodykit tom (tpunx***) had his engine replaced (I thought by crankwalk) and I know of two cars that are on their way right now. One was a QPR car (white 2g talon w/ eclipse bumpers) and another is on this site.

As far as the blocks go, I will let you know how my stock block handles the new setup. I am going to push it not because I can but because I dont have money for it. If it breaks, I will rebuild.

How is a 1g easier to mod you ask? They are easier to work on and you don't have to do as much to get them to go fast. Is that enough for you? If not, go to tuners and look at the upgrade paths. 1g parts are also cheaper to get.

Chris, as you know hp does not have everything to do with how fast the car is. I will try to get 92gsTEX (awd) to race remy (fwd) this weekend from a roll. Both cars are near stock. T25 turbos are shit. Doesn't matter if you make 210 hp at 5000 rpm but loose all of it by 6000.
