Well, I have been problem free since I bought my car back in early 03. I guess I'm about due because of all the racing I do. I don't race a ton, but I do run my car hard a lot. I've noticed my car is now eating radiator fuild, and what's there is brown. And, I'm leaking more oil than I was, even after replacing the gasket at the camshaft, and the valve cover gasket. I really don't want to put another 5sfe in there. I was rather a 4age, 3sge, or 3sgte. Those are my choices, and in that order. What ever I find, and is most cost affective, I might put in. I might end up putting another 5sfe, or just replacing the head gasket. But I really don't want to do that. I have no time to mess with it, so I'm worried that I might stay with this POS 5sfe.

Bulldog you racing fiend! For you i would say a high reving NA engine is in store. I fear what your lead foot and boost would do. Not a good friendship. Besides, you would be reletivly unique with an high output NA motor. Also, NA would allow you to better circut your car rather then drag it since NA is more predictable and easier to handle then a boosted motor., and make it funner to drive. Let me know what you decide though.
