Message	Beautiful, but my best friend has owned two, and both were parked more days than they were driven. LS1 is the way to go if you want reliability. The VG motor is reliable, thus no reason to do an ls/t1 conversion on a Z. The Wankel makes great power, but blows goatz for reliability. I have a friend with a built ls1 rx7: 50/50 weight ratio, 2800lbs wet, 650rwhp, daily driver. Check out Hinson Supercars. Cheers, JBrobst
