They are very very good machines.
Are the Series I really that much of a "lame duck" compaired to series II & III?.. I intend on mod'ing the thing with the usual intake, exhaust, cam, headwork, tune, etc... Anyways (it's a hobby). I would have thought it would be much easier to make more significant gains out of the under performing Series I engine (unless I am missing something).
