I would not pull it out to port it until it dies.

Otherwise your just creating down time and work for yourself.

not to mention the cost

im certainly leanin towards squeezin the life out of the current motor..

seems to make better sense... most likely gonna wait it out..

temptation for more power is hard to resist..

bein round fellas with nice hp numbers certainly doesnt help either...
