personally i would NEVER do a BEAMS swap. its a cool engine but im just not impressed with it. since you are coming from an ST, its going to be the same about of work and will cost less to do a V6 swap. look at my thread for what i did.

It's a lot of money to spend for 200 hp and no room for improvement without spending big money for a standalone. -------------------- "Employ your time in improving yourself by other men's writings, so that you shall gain easily what others labored hard for." -Socrates.
