That's not very nice. Who would want to put any parts made for a 159 rwhp car on a 200+rwhp car? Seems it would make more sense to build a motor that has a head start (if that's what you're into) for the purpose of increasing power rather than its looks

No, no thats the other guy with the house painted Vette. This guy has no Vette. He wants a 89 with a ZF and already has plans to install a renegade with two carburetors.

I grew up with people that ran 10's in Bugs- maybe an 1800 would fit nice under that 89

No No No, he wants the renegade. I wonder why anyone would take three steps back.

That was a good thread. Polo took more of a beating than this OP. I like the line "just take out 2 spark plugs"
