Swap, Mod or stock ?????

I just wondered wot everyone has done to their lumps (engines) , weather they opted for a straight out swap, modded their stock engine, or just dont care about performance and have left it stock

So far, I'm surprised. I thought that easy mods would have been the most prevalent option. So far, the vast majority are gung-ho swappers!
Although it also surprises me that the stockers are equal to the modders.

But I just looked again, and there were only five responders in this poll, so that's hardly a good representation.
We need more people to take this poll!

Swap. Why spend hundreds to thousands of dollars on bolt ons when you can pick up a Z6 or a ZC at least for just a few hundred dollars, and you already have a much better motor than a modded stock motor.. Then mod it.

I went with the first swap I did (zc) because I just wanted to be faster than I was and I didn't want to waste my money on usless boltons. Once I wanted to go much faster I decided on the B16 because they're so fast totally stock, and much faster with some mods.
