    VP Executive
    well just bought my VP a few weeks ago and already spent $1.5k on the sound system so far... and i have big plans for teh car. Was considering getting an ECOTEC engine myself and dropping it in. Though after reading this thread I have pretty much shunned that idea. No doubt the results would be pretty fkn awesome and unique to say the least. From the sounds of it id kill myself b4 it would be finished. The time, Money and Frustration would kill me twice over. Kudo's to u Mat for seeing this all through. But ill probably most likley end up getting a Reco Buick from a VP (mines done 230k and want to get a fresh engine b4 i start on the engine mods) so i can just slot it in basically without the piss farting around with all the wrecker's visits etc.

    Anyway gj with it all.

    no point getting a standard reco'd engine if you intend to mod it. build it to suit your mods, head porting, cam, CR, rockers etc etc etc you'll like the results better
