Well, sir, first off I would suggest you not yelling. Second off apparently you have been working on hacked I-4 conversions. Saying that an engine that has been in production for 29 years is junk is rather asinine. Lets look at the facts here. WBX engine 10 years in production (some parts are not even available for them now). I-4 engine 29 years and counting. Where do you get the basis to call them junk? IF you have worked on so many then you would know that there are quirks with any conversion. If you knew enough about them you probably wouldnt be having so many comebacks. Methinks it is your ineptitude in repairing them that makes you think they are problematic. Maybe you should stick with something simpler. My lawn mower is broken ;)
