Really.

I used to worry about it and even lose sleep. Now I can't wait for it to happen and frankly, I'm a little pissed off that it hasn't happened and may never happen while the car is in my ownership.

I need some justification to upgrade the motor to an LS1
I was the same way on my 914. I bought it 4 years ago knowing it had an abused engine that could die any day. Bought a 911 engine about 2 years ago and slowly been working on it - but hoping that a blown VW engine would speed up that project.

The damn thing still runs. But I'm finally to the point of pulling it so it doesn't really matter anymore.
