Michael,

If I were a young man, that would be my approach. But, alas, I am not a young 
man. This car I'm trying to build is the car I dreamed about in study hall 
when I was a teenager. I couldn't afford it then, but now that I'm a teenager 
again (albeit a creaky old curmudgeon as well), and can finally afford the 
time and money, I'm building it just like a would have back then. Back then, 
there was only one choice - a V8. For this OF, it just has to be a V8 - logic 
be damned!

Let the young folks push the frontiers. Me?  I'm going back to the "good ole 
days"
