sweet thanks for that website Smile)

if they are selling those motors off for under a grand thats pretty damn good value...

that ways i can just swap the motors over whenever i feel like it or when my g180 dohc gives up the ghost.. swap the motor and leave everything else

or throw a twin cam into my wagon Smile
