*The Autobahn Society in Braselton Ga did my conversion, Mark.*

Our lower end is 2 liter ABA, the top end is a 1.8, and Digifant II runs
the show.  The original conversion, done back in 2002 was a TiiCo.

Relying on a patented Seat Of Pants dyno, I feel the TiiCo pulled stronger
 between, say, 3,500 RPM up to red line, but when the TiiCo engine needed
major work at around 90,000 miles I was not a happy camper and switched to
a homegrown hybrid.

Last time I was in the shop and a conversion was in progress, I noticed
that the oddball oil pan you need is being fabbed up in house.
