I heard he had a preminition about losing his license because of too much power and decided to replace his mega motor with an L48.

That hurts, Chuck. Do you know how long I thought that the L-48 was actually a nice motor?

Absolutely! He will also be the first C3 owner in this century to reverse the trend by installing a SB into a BB.
