Yes, the Y40 is there and she is still going to go, I have the SC fever and I am going to get one, If I could fit a SC in my 40th I would go that route but all I have read on here is that it is easier to sell what you have then go and buy an SSEi.

I think a lot of the rust problems that the guys have problems with out on the eastern states you won't find over here, esp. in your part of the USA. Over here we don't have nearly as bad weather in the winter and a lot of states don't use salt on the roads if we do. I'd mostly look for engine and other mechanical problems.

I would rather have a 40th and drop the */C in than have a SSEi , and there are pleanty of L67'* that are in yards....im sure that you could find the PCM and the wiring harness

yes everyone says that oh dont swap a L67 in....but some people are attached to their car and dont want to trade

and ZZP has a SC kit for the L36

Default 92-95 SSEi - GOOD or BAD in each model

I guess what I should ask is why is the 92 better that the 93 or the 93 better than the 94 and so on and in reverse.
What differences are there between all the years, I reviewed the past 50 pages in the 91-99 years forum and all I could find out is the 93 head is better that the 92 because of roller rockers and the 93 is the last year to pull codes, and the 95 is the start of the series ii L67, and don't buy one with real low miles........

is that it or am I missing some stuff.....
