Hey Xavier, where can you get a complete engine for $500-600? Let me know bro. I cracked my head racing a Mercedes SL600 and that dick couldn't lose me coming down the 15 freeway at 125mph. We ran side by side for over a mile. I do have a XS Engineering Turbo kit and was running about 8psi.

I figured getting the head replaced was not a great investment in the labor costs alone, so since I have 150K miles on the car, might as well rebuild it or like you said, get a new complete engine.

Any assistance is appreciated.

Hey Racer, actually my 240 is Blue Emerald in color and is stock looking except for my Apex GT Spec exhaust sticking out the back. I call my car Sandman cause it's a sleeper like a you know what. I've had many a puzzled look when guys I've beat on the 10, 60 or 15 freeways watch me pass them by. It's classic.

As soon as I get back to speed I'l be back on the attack. I've seen that black 97 or 98 240 before driving down Mountain Ave near the 10 but as I pulled up, he didn't even look. He took off at the light slower than my grandma would in her walker. Guess he's not a racer. Hasta.
