Was great to see everyone who made it out the past couple months and we’re hoping to continue the trend! dodgeman87 has again invited us over to his...
How many miles on the trans? The aluminum shout part of the input shaft seal retainer that the TOB slides on worn? is the clutch cable loose or tight...
Well, back when i was 10 or 11 my big bro was deep into dodge daytonas and he owned about 5 of them, all either a v6 or n/a 4 cylinder. Then one night he brought home a 89 daytona shelby with the t2, this car was awesome, i got a ride from him and wow. i was amazed!! Unfortunly the dealer ship has to take it back because of some loan mix up...so he only had it for a week...I then inherited a 90 plymouth sundance which me sister owned and she blew the tranny..so she sold it to me for a buck and i put a used tranny in there and that was my first car. I then got out of dodge and began modding a 2000 grandprix gtp....which was fun...but i missed the easy to work on engine of my dodges...I then meet my girlfriend back in 02 and right by her house say a 89 daytona shelby. t-tops..just loaded...i passed it everyday and only wished i could find on like it...Then 2 years of driving past it, a for sale sign went on it...so for shits and giggles i decided to stop in and take a look. The car was in decent shape...but the engine was torn apart. Barly any rust....i got away with it for 600 bucks, which was too much i think..The owner told me his mechanic told him it needed a head because there where cracks between the valves..HAHAHA well, at this time ididn't know much about these turbo engines...so i got a different head....and tossed the other one.....DAMNIT...Well assembled her and got her running once again!!!! Then i threw a rod..and did a full rebuild with a s-60 turbo, built bottem end and the rest is history!!! I love these cars!! (Oh BTW, my bro is very jealous)
