A couple of things would concern me about the Revtech motor. One is I've heard the 110 needs compression releases, or it becomes a starter killer. The second is parts availability. There was a guy on this site that couldn't get valve cover gaskets. And was told they were back ordered with no delivery date given. Simple items need to be easy to get. Third is I haven't seen any reports of those motors getting over 50k miles without having to be rebuilt, or at least having other major work needed.,,

My brother has that motor and loves it because of the performance. BIg Cahuna is correct about the parts availability and that it won't last as long, but, did I mention performance??? She is sweeeet and like many hot women, can burn out fast, but damn, what a ride until she does... DAAAMn....
Personally I stick with the Evo... and all it's down-on-the-farm reliability. Not as hot, but she gives me all she can, all the time.
Have fun.
