David, a kit less motor and controls would be much cheaper.  When I spoke to
Bruce about this back in March I asked if would be available as such.  He
politely said no.  I think he feels the entire kit professionally installed
would be more reliable.  I do feel that a turn key setup with a 2.0 liter
installed for 5k is a pretty good deal, but it leaves DIY people out of the
fun.
