Sure, let me know what you've got once you take inventory and we'll work
something out. I'd definately be interested in the harness and maybe a few
other parts too.
I've been doing some reading and I'm not sure whether a 2.2 or 2.5 would be a
better choice. The 2.5 is torquier but you can't rev it as high as the 2.2,
and apparently you can make the same peak numbers out of a 2.2 for less
money.
Once the weather clears (and I make some room) I'll probably start scavenging
parts from the local yards, they're full of k-cars.
