Message	but no matter what I use for a powerplant it goes where it goes. The VG will have a higher overall weight but I'm factoring in weight, power potential, reliability and cost into this decision. the VG meets the three most important on my list. Cost, reliability, power potential, in that order. The car only weighs 1029 lbs right now so with a VG it will be under 1500 still I think which is still pretty darn light. Rob
