Well sounds like a good buy to me even with the problems.Seeing that you want to make a beast you really shouldn't worry about those problems to much.After you build up your motor it will run great with a ton more horsepower.Now if this car is your only transportation you might wanna look into the more serious problems... you know the ones that might leave you stranded at a traffic light or somewhere far from home with a dead cell phone battery and 15cents in your pocket.Have fun with it and keep us all posted.

I'm gonna try burping the cooling system today, and if that doenst work, try vsv pipe switch thing, also gonna try and swap over the motor on the pop up headlight. so i can see at night.
cars going into the shop for head gasket and belt changes very soon, just trying to find a metal head gasket. whats best steel or copper mesh? whats the difference (performance/reliabilty etc) ?
