Most of the electrical bugs were fixed compared to 97 and you don't have the risk of getting a bad cast head with 99+. As much as I like the horseshoe manifold I'd rather have the old head and swap the manifold rather than the other way. 2000 and 01 got a little too modern and have quirks that make them weaker and harder to work on. Anyways this all sounds like what I had in mind. Just gonna go through everything. Gonna coat the floor for rust protection top and bottom this summer.
