Well I picked up an 89' Daytona (2.5 turbo 5spd) this weekend with engine troubles wasn’t sure what the issue was but soon found out. the first thing that I found when I opened the valve cover was #3 cylinder rockers were lying in the bottom of the head. Then I pulled the head off and found that there is a hole in it, but the block still looks good. Funny that after 168,000 miles that the block still has cross hatch marks in the cylinders. If anyone has tips on the best way to rebuild I am very open to suggestion but I am on a budget. I want to have a good driver but plenty of power. I have been reading a lot about these turbo dodges over the last 6 months just waiting for the right project to come along. I also am wondering about valve spring/lifter options for the 2.5 head I read on one guys build about using 3.3 springs and 3.1 chev retainers but it did not have any year info or part numbers. Thanks, Ben
