how about this for logic then..... i happily mod my zetec......most importantly the parts that get modded are in order of what needs to be replaced as far as the life of the engine goes.....when i am finished with my other project zetec engine in about a year....it will be modded out and i will have spent around 10,000 on EVERYTHING that is on my car....that will be the total of what i have put into the car, since the car was a gift to me. now looking at that, i will have a brand new engine ready to go anywhere between 100 and 150 thousand miles. by the time i will be getting married and building a house....so when your zetec dies and your are forced to scrounge up some money and then make payments for the next 5 years on a new car, and i am buying my home!? come back and ask me about logic.......
