Sweet! and nice work on the 'pentastar' driveshaft loop! ;)

[Subliminal]

Sweetness!

Just needs shinier valve covers. ;)

[overlordsshadow]

Is that legal? Is that safe? Heck man thats deadly. Dunno If I would want a 8 sec or less Daytona..... Oh heck ya I would!

[SebringLX]

Damn, I can't see the pics at work... It sounds sweet! I will have to remember to check it out from home...

[SwiftTech]

looks sweet! one thing I notice though, what size down pipes are those? They look like they might be a bit small in pic two, but I could be wrong.

you are right the are small. they are for mock up only.:thumb:

[overlordsshadow]

Figured they were for mockup.

makes sense to me, what kind of specs will the motor have when its done?

[CSXT802]

The motor is .060 over (453 ci) 8.75:1 pistons, ported 906 heads, ISKY BB turbo cam. fuel and timeing will be controlled by A Holly comander 950 MPI system.

looks sweet, tho that driveshaft loop works better in the front:eyebrows:, lol just buggin ya, very cool tho. I'm surprised how well the 440 actually fits in that engine bay. Lol, I thought the 440 in my satellite was a pita to work on, can't imagine one with turbos in a daytona.:thumb:

Boost, 8.75:1, 906's and a holley efi controller seem a bit skiddish of a setup to me. How much $ is 100 octane gas these days anyway?;)

who needs 100 octane, when there is pump gas and alky injection.:eyebrows:

[jre97]

Is there room for a radiator with that monster intercooler in there? Well I guess I know what to do with my daytona when the floors are clear gone.

[shelby zed]

wow! thats insane

[BadAssPerformance]

Wow, that sooo makes me want to do that to my Z! :thumb:

[2.216VTurbo]

So will we see it at SDAC??? Even if it didn't get off the trailer just yet I'd like to see all the details you can't see in pics...

[Aries_Turbo]

love the project! one question though. the exhaust manifolds... are they for mockup or are they final... the runner/plenum style isnt the best for flow on the exhaust side. just something to think about.

[Gearjamer]

Man their is something not right going on between your ears! :evil: I'm jealous! Please keep the updates coming the work your doing is impresive!:hail:

[2.5L_Turbo_Sundance]

looks like a GREAT project.

what do you plan to run in that thing?


my dad got a built 86 with a 340, non turbo. its got the air shifter that is throttle stop for 11 second right now, but were gonna change that. he has a spare motor that is built more, roller and everything, that cracked the windshield before. my dad just bought the car at Don Garlits show last november, so we never got to taking it at the track yet.


let me know when you take it to the track though, and let us know your time slips!!!


if you dont mind me asking, where are you located? We should be taking the car to Orlando Speedworld when we take it to the track.

[aaron7]

Not gonna be much of a sleeper when you start it up! haha

I looked at that car last week, was pretty clean from what I could tell, didn't look too hard because I would've been more interested in a 1st gen daytona that's been converted to TII.

If any body is interested, the car is located in Paw Paw. The car would be a nice home for a magnum 360...:thumb:

[Dez]

Update?

[kuzman83]

its guys like me that dream about doing something like that but dont have the resources (money time space etc) so I live vicariously through other peoples bad A** accomplishments, they make me feel like my dream is still alive and that some day I can call something that awesome my own, thanks for keeping my dream alive, that thing is sick.

[CSXT802]

Update?

I have not been over to my fathers in a while. Now that he is retired he has been working on it more often. I'll be at his house on Sunday for easter. I'll bring my camara and get a full update.:thumb:

[Dez]

Looking forward to it :]

The utimate sleeper :banana-mario::banana-mario::banana-mario::banana-mario::banana-mario::banana-mario::banana-mario:

Sleeper my patootie! Sleepers don't have tires as wide as my house on the back! hehe That is some awesome fabrication though. Should propel you quite well.

[Dez]

Update?

[Dez]

bump-O, I want to see it.

[turbopacifica]

Wow Just Wow

[turbodaytona87]

[CSXT802]

Car was fired up for the first time months ago. Now the motor is out on the stand so the body can get painted.

Jee-sus!:eek:

[signsoflife22]

You know, It's SO-SO true about us MOPAR guys. We ARE definitely NUTS!!!
That HAS TO be some of the prettiest work I've EVER seen. And the fact that it's going to be powering a DAYTONA!!!?!!! Man, we are everything the nay-sayers(ie:Chevy, Ford, Jap mobile lovers), say we are. AND DAMN PROUD OF IT!. Excellent work man. And thanks for holding the torch for us here in MOPAR land. Keep all those other wanna be car guys guessing.(lol)

[TonaKid62]

DAMN! we need a video of it running asap. that thing is crazy, good luck getting traction! lol

Daaaammmnn!:thumb:

[thefitisgay]

i could have sworn i saw a daytona with a crazy orange and blue paint job that had an 8 cylinder in whitehall like 2 or 3 weeks ago

was that him? taillights didnt work lol

[CSXT802]

OK bringing this back from the dead. Since my last update my parents moved down to Fla. from N.Y. My father left the Daytona with his friend to finish the body work and paint. He was up a couple of weeks ago so he could move it from the body shop to a garage. He will be trailering it back down to Fla. in April. Here a some pics of it painted.293282932629327

[2.216VTurbo]

Sweet:thumb: With the factory color it's a real sleeper. Well, except for the huge rear meats and the turbos poking thru the hood, and the intake. OK, so it's no sleeper:lol:

[CSXT802]

more pics

[coronet2fast]

man this thing is awesome, wish I had the balls....well room to fit turbos on my 440 in my coronet.

Nice build! This may not be the place for the discussion but i always thought a "suck through" carb setup would be the way to go since then the carb would be functioning more like in an N.A. setup except that obviously it would have to be up sized. Plumbing would probably a bit more complicated i guess. But what if any mods need to be done to the carb to allow it to run pressurized with this "blow through" type setup?

[86seeS]

Get that sucker moovin!!!!!!!

Pressurize the bowl... have a way to up the fuel pressure to match... make sure you have a float that is able to hold up to the pressure.. make sure your carb is able to hold the pressure..

and tune until all of your hair falls out... Then still deal with drivabilty issues... a Drag car makes it simpler because it only has to do a couple things well.. but yeah.... there are not many people in the world that really understand that type of setup to really make it work.. Sure it is possible.. But at the end of the day... yeah.... It doesn't make much sense to me in this day and age... even a properly well tuned carbed turbo setup is leaving a lot on the table...


Sucking a fuel air mixture through a turbo isn't that much simpler to tune (although easier to set up).. and makes an intercooler practically impossible...


But look again at that "carb" used on this car... :)
