Hi all,
Popping in to say hello and introduce myself and "Thumper".
I may be new to the forum, but not new to DSMs. I have owned a '91 Talon TSI AWD (4G37 T), and currently own a '95 and '96 Talon ESI (420a N/A). I Love everything about the Talon!
I am currently rebuilding my '96. I purchased her 2 years ago this coming January. I got her for a steal!
I talked the guy down from $1900.00 to $900.00
... Just started naming things wrong with it and how the parts are not cheap... Too funny! 
Anyway, I am just installing new crank and rod bearings for now. When I got her, the timing belt hydraulic tensioner was bad. I didn't replace it right away. I was planning on rebuilding the engine using forged pistons and rods... Money is kinda an issue right now as my seasonal job just ended.
Looking forward to posting and answering any questions I can.
