"B", I like knowing exactly what is in my car and how it was driven and maintained. I do not like band-aid repairs and prefer to tackle the failed component/s and all relative preventative maintenance at the same time since it is mostly free labor. I used to do this with my British sports cars and they were a lot of fun and more reliable in the long run than most.

If I could improve upon the original part, I would. But for the most part I like keeping the car near stock.
