Congrats on your findings! That was quick! Good prices on whatever you
get. 
<Big loud buzzer sound!> Forget about the Fox motor. Lame. Nuff said.


If you want to run DSP, get the JH motor and use the 1.8L heaed. Its got
the bigger valves and besides, its eligal to use the 1.7L head on theat
block in DSP.  (Is that the motor you have now? 1.7L?) Now get going!!
