I wish I would have went with a GM crate engine. So many things would be different because most of my budget went to buying the TSP engine. I thought it would be worth it and it hasn't been. I have a feeling I would be loving the car and it would still be ripping around.

@mrg666 Thanks! Hopfully I can keep the updates coming somewhat steady. First hurdle is finding a machine shop. None of the ones in the area have a torque plate for the 2jz. So may be traveling 3+ hours to drop the engine off.
