you should save more than 900 and buy a transmission or something serious instead of nickle and dime bolt ons that you really dont need....

I agree with this. It's harder to save for and buy "big ticket" things like heads than it is to get items that cost only $150 - $300 each. Although it is nice to get a bunch of different stuff at once.

I would buy a 1992 Honda Accord EX with 508,000kms on it but it still runs fine although needs a clutch. Unfortunately I've already got one of those so PM me

How about stronger axles/diff. or better brakes (don't know if your brakes are already good).

...............Or just save more cash and buy a tank of gas.
