Poll: How many people reading this are rolling your eyes?

Short answer: NO. Don't even bother.

Longer answer: It is like this: You can't just keep installing a bigger engine in your car and expect it to work forever. After a while the other components in your car can't deal with the extra power, not designed for the new engine, and the chassis itself can't take the additional stress. You can change stuff, maybe a couple of generations, that to me, like 5 years tops, anything older than that and it becomes either impossible or doesn't make financial sense. OK if you are telling me this build has some kind of sentimental value, it's something you had when you met your sweetheart, come back and justify it to us why you are doing this.
