As I thought you would be the first to realise, all engines are ticking time bombs. Ones that have been opened, parts replaced and are running more powers just have shorter fuses
True, as what I said to the guy who started this, the same thing that happened to me could easily happen to the V8. However if I had a baffled sump, I may still be here right now At the end of the day it all comes down to the owner and how they look after their car.
Question then (No digs at anyone or aimed at docwra) So with the 'opened engines have shorter fuses etc' - by that standard it would be safer to just FI a stock VQ?
Another question for people -
If there were 2 engines up for grabs for free - which would you choose? Forged VQ or a untouched VQ? (And don't say Forged to then sell and make money ) because going by the current answers, most would choose the Untouched VQ as it would be a safer option?
