Agreed. My Vega launched the engine at 55k. Had a Toyota Celica we used as a field car with over 120k miles. Took the engine and trans from the Celica, put it in the Vega, and after many, many miles, sold the car.

If it didn't rot out, it's probably still on the road today. Had a lot more power than the Vega engine also.
