You ruined a 944 Turbo with a SBC? Oh, the horror!! What will all those PCA weenies say about you now? I'm sure they'll say to your face "What an evil man for ruining Ferry's folly" and behind your back, they'll say "Smart SOB - wish I had the stones to toss that expensive paperweight for an add'l 200 HP".
Speaking of track cars - while I still have the racecar, I can't seem to leave well enough alone. My MR2 arrived with a JDM 20v, a fully polyurethane kit and Suspension Techniques springs (new shocks too but I don't know what flavor). Now that I've rebuilt the rest of the suspension components, I may have to test it out at a local SCCA PDX - provided I can break free long enough to do so. When we hold our PDX events at Slummit Point's Shenandoah Circuit, it comes with the skid pad - it'd be fun to see how a car can spin like a top. Then again, our 2 youngest instructors (both college freshman, fellow competitors and good friends) continually point out that I can't drift to save my life. To quote one of them "You're an embarrassment to your heritage - your drifting skills are so BAD - I though Asian people were born with the drifting gene"...
