lets see some of the dd out there
Hehehehe, ya'lls drivers are WAY too pretty . . .
Picked up this beast for $650 back in January with 157k miles. Had new tires and battery when I got it, seat is in real nice shape too. Since then I've cleaned up the interior a little, fixed the hood latch(no more bungees), new plugs, wires, distributor cap, fuel filter, air filter, oil change, coolant change, and a new clutch. I'm in this thing for less than $1000 and it runs/shifts/brakes like a new truck.

I dont consider a dd your only car. A DD is a better car that you drive every day and then you have your nice car imo.

yup. it's not like the Allison auto's which can only take 400bhp before slipping the 5th/6th clutches. guys are pumping 1000+whp through ZF6's with only an input shaft change (only able to take about 600whp) and upgraded synchro's (stock ones SUCK).
that's stock injectors, stock IP, stock turbo.

It actually gets decent in town. I've deleted the DPF and have a programmer on it. I consistently get 13-14 in town and 18ISH hwy. On my way to and from TX2K11 pulling 7k it knocked down 13.1 avg. 80mph.

Currently looking into a Tomahawk block from TA Performance.
But $5900 and a long, long waiting list is a bit steep. You guys have it easy, the only aftermarket Buick 455 block is the Tomahawk.
Although it has been proven to withstand over 3300bhp. So I guess you get what you pay for.
Workin it.
