Hey guys,
This is probably going to be a slow moving process but I thought I would document this build.
Here is a little back story on my project...
I've always wanted an omni/horizon but kinda fell into the Shadow (bought a complete car for $50! cant pass that up right?!) I never intended to put the shadow on the street and use it for drag only. In the process I kinda ruined it by completely gutting it and removing all traces of emissions equipment. I'm basically over trying to trouble shoot and tune a car that cant be driven on the street. It sucks putting tons of work into the thing only to find out seconds into the run that something isn't right. So i decided either to try to put the shadow on the street or get something else....so why not an omni/horizon! I plan on making this car a street-able car (but not necessarily a street car) and using it for whatever may tickle my fancy (drag, autocross, road course). I will take the engine out of the Shadow and mate it to a 5 speed (still looking for a 568 btw).
Any who here is the car i found. Its an 86 carb'ed horizon with 47,000 miles. Its super clean but has been sitting a while and had bad gas in it so running is iffy. Already replaced a few fuel lines and the filters but still need to go thru the carb/ fuel tank as its spitting fuel out of the carb and into the charcoal canister. I plan on getting it running and emissioned with the current engine then the shadow engine will go in it once i get the tranny and more funds $.
