Very kind of you, thanks!
A large part of it, especially the RX-7 build, is as much online research as anything else. And as my ability to fabricate with steel has improved, I have become more fearless about trying new combinations of salvage yard auto parts. I still prefer things to bolt together as far as practical.
The good-mileage sleeper king, in my mind, is the guy with the turbo LSx and T56 in the old Fairmont. Looks like granny, can run 9s on drag tires, can do 30 MPG, and can pass a smog test. Same set of results has also been done with a Fiero, too.
I just want to keep up with traffic, most of the V6 Camrys and Accords now are over 270 HP, but a 270 HP 4.8L V8 in a 2700# S-10 will kill a 270 HP V6 in a 3700# car.
