RE: [DML] Venturing for some thoughts...

Reliabilty is not one of the problems with the car that bears your namesake.
It is the lack of power.
The PRV is a great engine, runs great and is reliable.
If you are going to go through the massave undertaking of an engine swap,
put in something with balls.
I reccomend something like the Acura Legend engine, or the Northstar v-6 out 
of a
Oldsmobile Aurora.
Otherwise nothing beats a good old Chevy-350.
It's a little heavy, but it will spin the tires.
