Seriously, if I had the money to do an engine swap correctly without skipping corners, I would have bought an M3 convertible.

Hey, when you pull that piece of sh!t F20C I'll take it off your hands. I need a new donk for my whipper-snipper (I think you guys call 'em weed-whackers).

Oh!

Yeah, it's huge. Big enough to fit a very short Honda block into it. And big enough to just barely clear it with the hood down....

If you can build up a S14 you can build a F20C. You been reading to many magazines.

Sounds like you've got a plan with the viper V-10.... that'll solve the torque issue... Oh, and can I get that F20? I'll give you 20 bucks for that fossil.... I need it for my artist's tattoo gun... now THAT would be an engine swap! I'd never have to spend another 8 hours under the needle again! :ROFLOL:
