I would have say stay with what you got. Unless your into drag other such stuff stay with what you have. My bville has never dissappinted me yet esp when comes to power and torque. I know that other cars faster then me. But my car has never seemed to not be able to pass. But it is your car and if u do go with swap I am sure we will help with advise.

and i talked to Vig....his mom is willing to help him out with a car....she WILL NOT let him swap the L67 into his car
...The car is under my name, I could do an L67 swap if I wanted to, but she said she'd give me some money to buy a car this summer but NOT to swap an engine in.So I guess that'* whats coming.

I could do the swap, but I'd rather just get a new car since I've got my mom willing to contribute money toward the cause
