Complete TII Motor and A555 trans combo package, motor comes with everything except AC compressor. Has a new HEP, turbo has normal shaft play, ran fine along with the trans. $800.00 Doors without...

Forgot to post my solution LOL, I got a bad O2 sensor from RockAuto from the getty-up, do not I repeat do NOT! buy a cheap --- O2 Sensor, buy either NTK or Denso. Whoever said or says the O2 sensor...

I did take the brace off to paint it while out but I put both bolts in, so it's good, I appreciate the suggestion.

Pulled the codes before the ECU reset and got #17- Engine too cool / #35 Radiator fan relay open / #51 Running too lean
After reset and thermostat swap to 195* all I got was #12 for a battery...

Thanks Jon, I did put a new O2 sensor in maybe it was bad from the get go, thanks for the advice.

Nope haven't pulled any codes yet, I'll try and get that done tomorrow, swapped out the stat and the only difference it made as of now was make it run hotter.

I advanced and retarded one tooth from my original cam time and both weren't as good as my original setting. I triple checked the timing before I put it together, the cam gear mark was basically...

Update - Advanced the cam, ran worse than before crappy low end felt good in the higher rpm range, retarded it also just for the hell of it, ran better retarded one tooth. Had plenty of power low...

It's always possible but the head gasket was 15 years old, I talked to Mike over at Forward Motion, he told me the reason head gaskets primarily fail is due to heating and cooling cycles and the...

Thanks Joey, I checked it again this morning, put it to tdc, on 0 in the fly wheel window, rotor pointed at #1. I thought it might have been retarded one tooth so I did advance one tooth but when I...

Thanks for the info but it has to be something else, the car ran great on this setup for a year solid until the head gasket blew, I'll check the cam timing again.

I blew a head gasket a few weeks back on my 87' Shelby Z, not the end of the world so I used it as a way to clean up the engine compartment etc.... I got everything back together and running but now...

Man that car is going to be awesome! The ultimate sleeper. :thumb:

I'd be proud to drive such a beater, the T's are awesome! That's a nice car ,has much potential.

Here is a good article on drive train loss, anybody's guess is as good as mine as far as HP loss through the drive train. :banghead:

You know I thought the HP loss sounded high to me as well, he said he dyno'ed new VW's that put out 180 crank HP and at the wheels it was around 135, maybe his dyno is off. I did some research online...

Yeah made me a bit nervous but at least it wasn't up on a rack, watched a few vids of cars getting loose and sliding off. Man I've watched your vids before, that duster kicks ---! :hail:

They always factor in Weather Correction Factor, the computer said 199.4 HP @ 5463 and 203.2 ft lbs of torque @ 4737, if the guy had mashed it on the 1st pull I'm sure I would have hit 200. He also...

Just posted the pics of the docs I got at the shop, the guy took it easy on the first pull, he wanted to make sure the car wouldn't move and also to get a feel for the torque steer. The second pull...

Thanks for sharing the thread Paul, I appreciate it!

I'm definitely going to try and make it out!

I've gotten mixed numbers so apparently it weighs anywhere from 2,680 lbs to 2,812 lbs, thanks for the comment!!! Yeah it runs out pretty well although not blistering fast it certainly is damn peppy...

Hi all,

Just dyno'ed my Daytona and it pulled some decent numbers from the mild mods that have been done to the car, here is the link for the YouTube vid that I made.
