The cylinders make nice flower pots. <g>

Seriously, I love mine. Yes I've had a couple problems, but the engines hp/torque curves seem to be well suited to the vehicle.

Reliability has not really been a problem. Only once in a half-million miles have I been strandedI've had to replace gasket sets a few times when I've noticed things starting to get a bit wet.

I can't see myself trading this set of problems for a bit more horsepower and "the great unknown" of an engine swap.
