Yeah, that's the goto for the Dajiban racing crowd.

Too funny but I just use mine for putt-putt, home depot trips and such. But must admit, I'm slightly tempted.

Ok, just to tempt you further..... (spend money, sppeeeennnnddd moooonnnnneeyyyy.....
) You will likely get BETTER gas mileage with the 5.2 than the 3.9. Engine doesn't have to work nearly as hard to get your 5000 pound brick moving, and keep it moving.

Yeah that, on that 3.9l I read a very detailed article on that engine and the guy was saying it's a 318 with 2 cylinders chopped off but because of some balance bugaboo they are destined to misfire so I pretty much ignore that code. I'd settle for a 318 with points and plugs, just dreaming.
