how many miles on the rebuild? The first few miles might be rough b/c low compression. If it's broken in there shouldn't be a problem.

it all depends on how loud is your exhaust and how hard is your suspension

when u are traveling alone or in 2 ppl, its good car for trips .... never had problems to drive 10+ hours in one day in TII....

Woo!

I drove from Vancouver, WA to Dallas, TX and back in less than a week in my 10 AE, other than a broken thermostat and a bit of overheating it was fine, I say go for it.

If the road is good, go for it! I have used my old T2 for long road trips and when the road is clear (And smooth) you can gooble up large amnounts of pavement in short amounts of time!
Curvey roads are also a blast to "Boost" through! Sounds like a cool road trip to me!
