Default compromises *sigh* (car related)

well, its looking like my little money-making scheme for this summer isn't going to work out... so my crVTEC buildup is gonna have to wait another year probably (this makes 3 now). But my vx motor is on its way out, I definitely need something new in there.

So here's what I was thinking: I could get a b16a swap this summer. I could build the head (cams, springs, IM, TB, etc.) and see what I could squeeze out of a stock shortblock. In the meantime, while i had something at least decent under the hood, i could build up the b20 shortblock in my spare time. Then when the time came to put it all together, I'd have an already built head to slap on the shortblock, and an Si tranny to bolt up. I could always get a n2o kit too if money allows.

*sigh* i sometimes wonder if my car will ever be done :happysad:
