The M20 is a very easy engine to work on and is probably a great place to start for someone like you. Have fun working on it.

Since you brought that up, the dash does say it's due for an inspection. I'll have to take a look at that list and see what I haven't already done. I've become almost obsessed with working on the car, everything is fairly straight forward and I learn a lot from it. I've been putting more thought into the exhaust as far as upgrading goes once I get my new regulator, though the only trustworthy headers I can find are the IE ones. I really want to get my hands on some of the Racing Dynamics ones, but that's difficult and expensive.
