You and me both... I plan on keeping my crossfire for MANY years... and after my 3.2 goes.. I am going to be looking to have some fun, rather it be whatever it is TVT has up their sleeve, or a LS1 swap. I did an LS1 swap in to my 94 RX7 and loved it... I think the LS1 would be a GREAT fit in a xfire

You never know!

I got to check out the Volvette at Chad Block's Racing Development in York, PA last year at one of his car shows. While that's pretty cool and original, it's not a real Volvo. You can get an old Volvo Red-Block motor and get upwards of 900-1000 hp out of them. The newer White blocks aren't quite as strong
