Nice!

I had a 1776 in mine that held its own quite well, my brother's 1776 was sick! First and second gear with the front wheels off the ground :P His was totally worked, mine was pretty mild.

Also very cheap to build and easy to work on. I would atleast go to a 2180 or a huge turbo on your 1914 atleast :P
Just kidding, you'll be very happy with what you're thinking and roast some young teens with their fart-canned 4 bangers :P

nice thing about it being a baja is that you can put some meat back there for your new found traction issues :P
