You mean "blows up again".  Heck, I put the same engine back together several
times now, only 210,000 miles on it, haven't even gotten to the second rebore
yet, let alone sleeving.  What would I need with another engine?  

Actually I am currently doing up a spare engine, just in case I ever need
that overnight swap, and hoping I'll never have to use it.  Y'all out there
have some good ideas on how to store a spankin' new rebuilt motor
indefinitly?  I think maybe dry nitrogen in a large baggie.  Any more?

One reason I get along so well with my one LBC is because it is just one.
 Gives us lots of time together, being monogynous you know.  If I had two,
probably neither one would get enough personal attention.  I'm sticking with
just the one.  Keeps our performance up.

I figure a person shouldn't drive a car any newer than their original
driver's license.  That would get me up to a '66 B.  Hummmm!  Sounds about
right.  Could be some sense to it after all.
