You dared me to call it rice!
Really, your car is very nice and done up right. I'd gladly drive it . Not rice at all.
I'd post a pic of my ride but you wouldn't want to see it, it's just a truck.

Re: Auto perferences (moved from cutting cylinder skirt...)
Dont get me wrong im into muscle cars as well as bimmers and toyota trucks but this car is just the family grocery getter. The power:liter ratio on 4bangerz is also wayyyyyy better than a v8. Do the math. Ive seen 9 second chevys and ive also seen 9 second crx's and eg's built with a fraction of the price. If your trying to build a dragger then my vote goes to vw bugs they are the best imho. Just harder to find round here

I'm into both, but I can get 225 out of my 1.6l turbo engine on stock internals everyday for 1,000,000 miles and your 5.7l chevy will make 200hp on a good day without extensive mods cam swaps headers etc. and idle poorly then at 300,000 blowup for no real reason. I went through my muscle stage with my 87 f250 502 stroker high compression pistons big cam intake big carb headers etc. it got 4 mpg around town if I drove nicely need 93 oct gas or almost no timing at all and made 500 hp at the wheels and ran a 13.0 at the track. my miata I swapped a 3.0l stock supra engine into got 26mpg in town 32 highway ran a 12.3 at 127mph and it idles smooth as can be. Just my .02 once I started working in a performance shop I started to appreciate the imports for what they can do.
