Mission creep for sure but as b-man points out in the thread he linked, it's necessary. You put in a much more powerful motor then you need a chassis, suspension and tires to put it to the road and keep it under control. In a way I feel bad about loosing the originality but honestly, I bought the car to drive it. So it definitely needs to be powerful and fun but also safe so I don't end up like the guy in the GTO crash thread currently in the Lounge....

BTW, what do you guys think about the G-bars?
