It's not a dog. It's a great motor. That's why it's popular.

-easy to work on
-affordable
-respond well to boost
-strong (hold 450rwhp on stock bottom end)
-lightweight

I am familiar with them ;) Still a dog.

Some powdercoating I did for a friend..




I know, I know, it's not the DET, but he was happy with the result....

Still a dog.

Explain.

My biggest issue with it would be that it's a 76. You missed CARB exemption by 1 year. Which, aside from meaning you get to smog a 34 year old engine, any engine swaps you do will have to be BAR inspected. No bueno.

It's like when my bimmer was getting in the range of being 25, and then they decided that they'd change the rules. Stupid CARB... all cars should just have to pass a sniffer test, period.

Trade a girl for a Z car?

She better be hot AND smart.

WITH a good job...

both. :)

I can't comment on the pros and cons of the trade without pictures of both. Go with whichever has lower maintenance.

Stole my thunder, but I was going to say "seems like a fair trade but I'd keep the one with fewer miles on it." :)
