Hello all,
I recently purchased a 91 Talon. The good, it came with a Strictly Performance head. The bad, everything else.
Didn't run at the time, eBay parts galore on it (turbo, intercooler, exhaust manifold, 02 housing), random transmission with a cracked bell housing, timing was off, electrical issues, leaking oil everywhere.
It has turned into even more of a project than I had anticipated. This was supposed to be my "cheap" speed 1/4 mile race car. However, I am excited for the initial completion to get it up and running hopefully hitting 11s at the track this year. My ultimate goal is s 10 second car for 10k, just not sure if that will actually happen...
I'm off to a good start with massive help from the local DSM crowd. Current plan is to fix the little things and get it up and running. It's been a slow process, but that just makes it better at the end, right?
