    I was just stating that the Ford is in a better platform (RWD, able to adapt V8 trans to it, ect)
    What are these bad things you hear?

        Head studs, mopar performance headgasket, and cylinder #4 cooling mod. Headgasket issue fixed. Don't rebuild the 5 speed, just get another one.
        Godspeed, on the Devil's thunder.

          2.2's had all the same problems, people in the know need not worry about what you call problems.

          And here I thought you were going to bring up some actual problems that people actually bitch about.

              An 80's turbo car would be a horrible daily driver.

                      The previous two owners daily drove my car, and so do I. If problems arise I should have my motorcycle up and running sometime soon.
