yesterday i took my car on 100mile trip in hot temps, and thou the car never overheated nor did it ping once it developed a small miss fire on idle and the breather is smoking more than usuall. now my plugs are way over due for a change and since i have no oil cooler on the m103 it could be cooked oil. any way tomorrow ill compression test the car, if anythin is off, ill be rebuilding the engine.
not that i dont love the way it delivers the power, its just that maybe my car has too much miles on it to take all this abuse. :/

So maybe it's a pain in the butt but it's still a cool car.
