yea, put the 350 in for sure, are you lucky enough to not need the emissions equipment?

tom, have you looked into collector car insurance for you maro? i believe for most "collector cars" you are exempt from emissions testing but are limited to how many miles a year you can drive it. and i think if a car is 20 years old it qualifies, so you may have to wait, but its something to look into
