Nope, don't plan on doing anything to the engine. Just curious. Don't use the car too much around town as the fuel milage isn't that good. But on the highway I get about 24mpg at 75 mph. Modified curve in the distributor, and lockup converter work in those conditions. Car only has about 155,000 miles on it. I bought it new in 1988, has never been kept in a garage, so paint doesn't look so good, but not rusted. Just surface rust, where the paint is worn.
