Im not really even talking about my car. My car will only get 35mpg highway with a hurricane force tail wind. I was thinking of a 2 door hatch Ford Aspire with a 1.3 manual. Ive been trying to find a good fuel sipper but the popular ones are getting more attention as fuel savers as gas is going up. So I wanted to get a fuel sipper that is kind of under the high fuel mileage radar.

Yes id be doing this work myself. And to me its not that daunting of a task to tear an engine to bits and put it back together. I just have to have a plan of attack. I have been porting, polishing, smoothing and doing fab work for close to ten years. To me its fun to think of out of the box solutions to fix things other people ignore. I guess im a shade tree tinkerer but I suppose 80% of the people here are too.
