OT, but where about in socal are you from?

I'm in the OC.

OT, too, but is that a stock rear deck lid? Seems longer than the one on mine. Maybe it's just the way the pic looks.

I'll pass by all the technical questions and just go for the juggler. How much would a modded M42 from him cost?
And how streetable are his engines?

Edit: Whoa!!! I just noticed the link, and found my answer...20K!

M42 fuel injection intake manifold set (two pieces)     $456.00
M42 throttle body set    $594.08
Air horns (each)        $46.55
i looked at these a while back, you'll need the tbs and the manifold so you're looking at over $1k before air horns, about $1250 with. still a good price though.

worth noting that that lot's not ideal for a road car, the fuel injectors and throttle butterflies are too far away from the valve for a start. also there'd be more costs cos you would have to figure out ICV, brake servo, FPR, intake plenum, tps etc.
think when all's said and done the dbilas setup is the most road-friendly.
the butterflies on that kit look like a good dia. though.

mmm yes, i didn't really read into the whole thing, i just saw a throttle boddy settup for xxxxx dollars and got excited:)
