Message	If I were getting into the territory where a crankshaft upgrade were my next step, might as well swap in a new block around it while I'm at it. I'm still considering a VQ35 swap in one of my Z's. Might as well save some weight with the aluminum block while I'm at it. ------------------------------------------------------------------ 1992 300ZX NA 5 Sp (Dead) 1990 300ZX NA Auto 2+2 (Dead) 1990 300ZX TT 5 Sp (Building) 2004 G35 Sport 6MT (DD)
