b-man, consider a trip over to this thread:

Otherwise, there's no telling what sort of kryptonite may drop out of the sky on you.

pfft -- easy to remember. The one who uses all caps for his user name always drives his wife's car at the track 'cause his is broke.

...Although that may be the norm for Baltimore, as that often covers Irfan as well.

Dorkis make fun of you whether you're on the track on not.

Roger at Autotherapy in Gaithersburg, around the corner from the airpark, is someone I highly recommend. He knows the M96 and M97 engines very well and did an great job on my engine rebuild. He does quite a few IMS replacements and uses LN Engineering products. Former club racer and instructor so he understands the demands of the track. Worth at least talking to him to see what he says.

+1 on Roger. Really knows his stuff.

More fun if you're off track in the kitty litter.
