Okay, 8 posts, not even trying to follow the posting guidelines, and thats not even starting on the fact that you're asking about a Dodge whateverthefuck in the Supra General forum. Wow.

Heh, I was going to say something, but since you beat me to it... ;)

This topic is best brought up in the off topic section bud. Anything non-supra related needs to be discussed there ;).

I just read your profile, and your one and only mod is rod knock. Now thats comedy:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:


*edit*
G/L with the shadow BTW, but this is the wrong place for that. I say that car could probably use a well needed cliff.

Are those engines the type if you break the timing belt, then the valves get to know the pistons on a personal level?

i do believe they are.... interference motors ftl....

:werd: And you have done some head and block machining on ours a couple of times along with a 282 cam profile (with mods to the head to make it fit of course ;)) I believe we would also be damn close to having an interference motor.
