I also researched this and his info is about as helpful as what is already contained in this thread

Good thread. I'd like to add that the straight neck can be used in our cars, as I've done it. I just cut the front motor-mount, dropped it, re-welded it so it would tilt the engine slightly. I also had to modify the throttle body linkage.

How is my method anything at all like the original posters? It is possible you need to work on your reading comprehension skills.

The original poster actually mentions NOT modifying the motor mount, whereas my post clearly mentions cutting the front motor mount and rewelding it to create a tilt in the engine's positioning. Also, my method suggests modifying the throttle body linkage--the OP did not mention such a step, instead he suggests using a much smaller, restrictive throttlebody and grinding into it, placing it direclty in front of a critical bolt that is key in the braking system.

To the OP: nobody said it wouldn't work, but we just said it was a terrible idea, which it was. You did not prove anybody 'rong'.
