Behind my Polysphere making engine noises and
Just tossing some idea's around in my head. Nothing serious, but still, information would be cool.
One, i got to thinking with the Dakota. I've got an idea to do a turbo charged 3.9 (simular to Buicks Grand National, the 3.8 V6 Supercharged Two-Door Coupe, more precisly, the 1987 GNX, the Grand National eXperiment). If i could get the money together (after college obviously), that would indeed be fun in a truck....and a killer at that (thinking of getting custom made emblems that say DSX "Dakota Sport eXperiment"....i smell a lawsuit LOL) But i was also thinking of Jass there about his 340 Conquest idea. Now, i have no Conquest being offerd to me, or older supera (or even old RX7), but i was thinking of that 3.9 in one of those cars (they do have production supercharger and intercooler for the V6, its made for the Gen III Dakotas/Durango's, but i could make it work) would be fun. And since that Dakota body and frame (and transmission....its an AX-15, as Jass said "Those things will last forever providing you don't drive them :doubt:
") but the engine will still be going strong. Plus the PCM is set to manual already, so keeping it fuel injection is no problem, and knowing that the driver is doing the shifting too.
I was also thinking about those 3.0 V6's too. I know about their problem uptop, and the fact that Jass says they supposedly fix that problem after 93', but the reason why i was thinking of those, is that they used to be run in these mini-indy cars in the "Shelby Series". All Dodge 3.0 V6 rear mounted engines and transmissions.
So for some strange reason, i'm, itching to make my own car of sorts, pretty much make something out of existing parts that can be found in the junkyard or bought over the counter, the poor mans custom car LOL. Even if that means bastardizing a Supera with a 3.0 LOL, something fun and i might be able to join an auto-enthusiest club.
I grew up around the dirt oval, but i love taking turns going both left and right :gaga:
But all this is just boredom induced thinking, and nothing is going to be done until there is a cash flow after college. If anything, my "beater" car might be the LeBaron if i can save that...otherwise, i'll have a 2.2 Turbo with no home.
Oh, and another question....Do they still make intercoolers for the 2.2 Turbo that would work in a LeBaron? :dance:
