So lately I've been having moments where I want to go full retard.

Setups like that thrown into something suitably brown and square. Say a Diplomat with steelies or a Mirada.

Ooh, slab sided Dakota with V6 badges!

WHY AM I SO WANTING TO BE AN FILTER DEFYING SHINY HAPPY PERSON FOR NO REASON?

I have a knock or ping in my Ranger. Thinking of what more powerful engines would mate with the 4cyl transmission.

I was almost considering getting another RB and dropping it in. That is if the knock ends up = a bad block.

So, you're not alone.

Tell me about it.

I just had a "fun" thought that this motor would actually probably fit in a Miata.

That's an acceleration run up to 215mph, btw.

I just don't get it, I see an AWD minivan, long wheelbase and two sliders, and I think "Hey, that would make a decent junkyard crawler." And then part of my brain goes "eff that, boost it till it explodes and make a soccer mobile of doom!"

I see the things other people do dumb things with and wonder how I would make it more useful as a daily driver. Then spend all of my time trying to dream up oddball deathtraps.

For some reason recently, I've been daydreaming about getting a black, late '80s Crown Vic and putting a Coyote motor in it to have my own personal version of the Men in Black car. Fasten your seat belt.

Did you HEAR the video??? That's why you and I both want to boost everything known to man. Here's a little fuel for the evil genius:

No boost, but I approve of this: Ice drag Civic with a 440. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wSVb13xBaBI

Yes.

No, that's driving in a straight line alone.

Exactly, real ice racers turn corners and there are other cars there.

A 5th Ave with the padded vinyl top, full wire wheel covers, and crushed velour bordello interior would be better:
