I think you did it on purpose to give us something fun to write about :D

Wait.. where did the bear come in? At least he didn’t create a grisly scene with your entrails when you decided to stop.

I had this immediate question.  If the Mustang was so close so as to cause a rear-end collision, that he had to grass-ditch, it should have taken the SUV in the face (if it didn’t grass-ditch as well)

As a Lotus Elise driver, I concur.

Wait, if the Mustang was Directly behind you and that close to you... where did it go when you ditched to the grassy shoulder? 

Hone it more and send it was my first thought looking at the pictures. Alternatively, since you will be using it to generate content, do the rebuild and write it down as a business expense.

The third option: Hone it some more and send it. 

Damn right.  I’m about to lose interest in this site when I have to refresh 5-10 times to get the comments to pop up, and I’m not running any blocking software.  But put the already rebuilt engine in.

I say rebuild your existing engine. Yes, $1500 is more than $1000, but it’s still not a huge sum. Plus it will give you a lot more material for future articles.

One vote here for rebuilding your 360. It’s original, and when you’re done you will know it is in excellent shape top to bottom. You would also be able to spread the expenses over time: buy some parts, wait a while, buy some more parts, etc.

Yes, David. Everyone knows that you’re into some hinky stuff that involves rust and copious amounts of pain, but really, matching numbers? Trust me, the scrapyard operators won’t give a sloppy dump when you finally move along and it gets thrown into those wicked recycling teeth.

First, solve the problem of having to refresh the page to get the comments to show up. 

I hate to break it to you, it hasn’t been owned by Univision for a while now, far worse, it’s now owned G/O Media... Much much worse.

I hate pointing fingers, as mistakes happen, but the three significant errors in that paragraph (and the other which extends throughout the article as a whole) have broken my brain entirely.

Dude, this person gets paid to write.  Furthermore she’s the Managing Editor of the site.  If my 10 year old turned a writing assignment like this in to his 4th grade teacher he’d be graded accordingly.  

Also, I just realized this Erin Marquis is apparently the Managing Editor of Jalopnik now.  Wow.  

im thinking them saying components is pretty vague. the engine is one component, supercharger is another and so on.  

also “kinda tact on to” => “kind of tacked onto”

“It was huge and ungainly, with a perchance for understeer thanks to the turbocharger kinda tact on to the front (hence the Blower name)...”
