Different strokes for different folks. I enjoy seeing something different.

If you go to enough car shows in my area, you notice a high percentage of cars have a small block chevy in them. So much so, that after a while you mentally knock off points for a lack of originality. It seem's like anyone can stick a SB cheby in anything, and they do it all the time. With that said, I still wouldn't want to insult anyone. I've seen some nice cars with a SB cheby. They just don't belong in everything.

In areas of the world where Ford engines are hard to come by, by all means do what you have to.

Bob Bodurant (SP?) sure did love driving the turbo V-6 Buick engine with auto tranny (in a Cobra) at the London car show last summer. I guess some people can appreciate a great mut, and others think it must have a pure documented blood line.
