Well, I guess that will eliminate the possibility of passing an emission test!

Since you are good at winning engines here's another opportunity from Blipshift email:

WIN A BUILT LS MOTOR!

Racing season is starting back up, and you're aimlessly searching for some more speed. Well you're in luck! The enablers at RacingJunk.com are giving away a 480hp LS3 crate engine worth over $7,000 in their RacingJunk.com SDPC Engine Giveaway! Built by Scoggin-Dickey Parts Center and Chevrolet Performance, this motor has the power to improve whatever project you're working on, whether you're headed to the track, autocross, or just general street shenanigans. Power over to the RacingJunk website to enter, but hurry - the contest ends February 28th!

Heh - unfortunately, I'm being stupidly sentimental about the LT-1 in the 'Vette. I want to keep the numbers-matching block since that was Mom's car - that's the reason it doesn't have a certain 4-bolt-main-pre-smog-race-motor-with-a-lumpy-cam in it right now...

Just cause you take the motor out doesn't mean you have to get rid of it you know? It can occupy the space currently utilized by the built motor...

You're married, right?

To a woman who wanted a 911 and likes changing her own oil (not a euphemism you asshats!), yes.

Oh yeah. She uses her cleavage to hold her phone while driving said 911. I forgot that part. Sorry.

My wife likes the idea of a garage that DOESN'T have a engine on an engine stand in it. And since she pretty much tolerates massive amounts of my lunacy on an ongoing basis, who am I to refuse this one request?

That's the same thing my fat little bastard nephew uses HIS for.
