Just moved from IL to CA. To make a long story short ran into engine trouble so I pulled it. Its out and I want to know if anyone has gone all motor with this engine sucessfully. I checked with the local smogman and basically I cant legally do a 3sgte swap. Is there anyway to make the engine better in its current state? Also local engine builder not speaking highly about working on. Are custom titanium rods worth it?

I've post quite a bit on this. Overall, it's fair as an n/a motor at best. Because of the stroke design, it's pretty limited. Search. Also... titanium rods are race only items. They'll eat away at your internals...
