By the way you guys forget i've got v6 insurance, so I would be putting that extra 1.5k in my pocket every year instead of owning a base TA which I have completely dismissed a while ago

The problem with that.....is it's insurance fraud.....I'm not dropping the dime, but if something ever happened to you or the car (of a serious nature) and the insurance company could and probably would deny your claim then you are left in a really bad situation....don't screw around with you insurance, it ain't worth it.....Once the v-8 goes in, you should upgrade the insurance, which will trigger all kinds of other red flags because the vin won't indicate an 8 cyl car, inspection could become a potential nightmare (at least hear in NJ)...it ain't worth the ********....sell and buy a V-8 car....If you really have the resources to build an 800 hp ls-x based turbo mill, then go find V-8 Donor car and start clean.....drive the v-6 rig until the v-8 car is complete....I really doubt a stock or even mildly built m6 would live behind such a beast for very long if driven hard.....
Think it though, cause once you start the money will go away very quick and if you run out half way through that project you could take a total bath....
Good Luck
