I think that you expecting an IMS or RMS faliure at 100%. I hope you're not too dissapointed if you run into a good model, drive the heck out of it only to find that the motor holds up fine. There are many members here that have very reliable engines as well. At that point you might be stuck with the question, do I go ahead and do engine swap anyway since my engine looks like it won't blow up. whatever engine you get, you should still have a big grin on your face.
