I need to decide on a look first. The impact bumpers are actually growing on me, which is kind of shocking me. I’m actually debating just removing the strakes and holes, fixing the rust at the hood corners, and touching up areas versus backdate RSR/IROC/custom whatever. Would still like to drop weight though.

I’m also going to need a rebuild this winter (5 cylinders with 10% leak, 1 with 20%). Leak seems to be from the rings. Problem is Mahle no longer makes the pistons for the 3.1, so if I need new ones then I’m hosed. So do I tear it down, check pistons and cylinders and rebuild if okay, make a 3.2ss if not, or just go straight to dropping a 3.6 in? Anyone local have a 3.2ss?
