Rare truck but thats no stock turbo, only Dodge turbo from the factory in a truck is a CTD Ram.
Allpar says 175/270crank, 0-60 in 8 seconds with a 3600lb truck. Claim to fame is first V8 Dak, sort of the RT of the late 80s
Worthy of a restoration regardless

RESTORE THAT TRUCK!!! why would you take such a rare vehicle and modify it?? just keep it to specs!! internals can be upgraded but keep it matching. it'll be worth more in the long run.

Either way, jump on it before it's gone. Especially since there were only 1500 made. Who knows how many have survived.
