your right about that. My first vehicle was an '87 that I got in 9th grade with 60k on it. I put 80k on it by senior year. All I had to replace in that time was new front brakes, clutch, and replace a very abused 1st gear.

Get it, but if it's already swapped, check over it.

Believe me, I know, hahahahaha... Top mount with a 40r will make its way in there, and maybe air-water-air intercooler.

I love the space...
