I'm talking real money, not that colorful pretty, but less valuable, stuff you guys use up thereSticking to it, or stuck with it? And yeah, I have sort of been keeping tabs on the ongoing saga of the mclellan, although my attention can be easily diverted from it to other, maybe more intriguing, things that can and do pop up at random on the board.
As for the Q-jet boondoggle, the key here is your phrase, "Under $500 would've bought a respectably rebuilt unit by someone who knew what they were doing." The emphasis here ought to be properly laid on that "someone who knew what they were doing." In my experience, the genuinely capable are few and far between and, given their relative rarity, can tend to command fatter numbers for their work than a paltry five bills.

Besides, add up the costs of a Sniper, a new engine, and a new FI unit, besides the other changes to support it, and compare it to even a gold plated quadrajet.
Not only would the q-jet STILL be cheaper, but, it would actually run and be drivable.... two things that the poor monte has suffered a problem with thus far
