| When I first saw the picture I thought you had just bought a shell and it was sitting on your driveway. |

I'm interested in seeing the VR6 set-up. 
How was that done?
1) How safe is it.
2) How well was the job done?
3) Can it be 'un-done'?
Congrat's either way! It looks real solid... a perfect base to start out with(?).
Hack-age, or not.... that VR6 sounds kinda cool to look and stare at, and I am sure it is real f@ckin' cool to drive, ( if that IS what you bought it for) in traffic.  
Good luck with it, man.
