Good point, the grass is always greener!  I have a feeling we can count
the conversions on one hand, and those with more than 50,000 miles on
them are probably nonexistent.

It might be cheaper than converting, and certainly easier, to have a
spare stock engine in the garage waiting to drop in if the one in use
fails.  Little hassle, one or two days and you are back on the road.
Conversions sound appealing, but I too would like to hear from someone
who has put more than a few thousand miles on one.
