Why would you be ecstatic? You have to wait forever for the longblock to arrive, then you have to wait another week while they install it... then you have to go through the break-in process all over again... and then you have to leave your broken car at the dealership while they try to get parts to fix things that were jacked up with the swap.

Not my idea of enjoying a brand new sports car... but that's just me.
