Just my opinion...

If you're buying a car that has not actually been daily driven (the vast majority of these cars haven't, and sellers often aren't honest), then I think you're jumping the gun with the engine stuff. I was like that with my car, and instead found myself needing to put it all on pause to work through a dirty fuel tank, bad wheel bearings, electrical issues, leaking steering box etc. I would suggest putting at least 1000 miles on it keeping it totally stock to see truly where it's at. It almost certainly will need sorting. After that, go ahead chase some mph
