BTW, F you guys I'm still picking it up lol. I can always part it out and make more then a grand.

Nah. Mach's are still 12-14k for a good one. And I'd still be limited by a crappy tranny and bottom end. Only benefit here would be 4v heads.

Btw I already hav a Zex kit I plan on spraying at least a 125 shot thus the built motor/tranny comes into play.
