Adding to my last post. Yes most are just for hobby...but the water pump and IMS...personally when I plan vacation months in advance to be 400 miles away deep into the NC mountains with events planned and a nice young lady along for the ride...I don't think I want to be flat bedded home. Yes other things could break but I picked some of the better known ones and just replaced them (hopefully the new parts aren't defective
).
I will say though that I'm doing most of the suspension and the car drive like new, it's nice. Of course Charlotte roads suckk and they wear out bushings pretty fast.
