Have been pondering freshening up my car and giving it some new life to renew my interest in the car... Has anyone ever heard of importmotor.com?

They advertise on ebay and I was specifically looking at this application...

Coupled with some weber 44s... Thoughts?

Seems like an economical solution for just a street car that i dont feel like putting a 9k engine in...

lots of people viewing this thread....

does anyone have suggestions for freshening a 1.7L to get more power ? I have no issue w/doing the work myself but would like some good suggestions for pieces/cams/p&ls to use.

prefer an option that doesnt cost 6k just in parts.

I thought McMark had a $5k longblock engine??? Might have been an old price. Do a search on 5k motor.
