HAHAHAHA, you're funny mark... Really.

No rental, luckily I have a lot of cars laying around, plus the Prius saved a lot of gas last month ;-)

Anyway, I finally got the thing back (actually a bit over a week ago). The thing is SMOOTH. I haven't raced the thing at all so I can't judge the power or anything. It's still breaking in. I have about 500 miles on this block, and everything seems well. It will be due for a head retorquing soon...

I like this motor a lot, it seems to be very nice, not like the other one, it does feel better. I also like the power brake booster, the brakes feel great now. The steering is also very tight, (recently replaced rack and pinion, all the tie rods). The van really feels good, It needs a wash inside and out though. I do have one issue with it (small) but because my job as a moderator, I have to be a model of the proper forum viewer... so I will post a new topic in a new thread.
