Daytona rear wheel drive project ? ? ? ?
Ok i didn't do a search, and im aware of the old kits for putting a sb into a daytona and adding a 8.75...
I have decided that if i was to put a sb in the Daytona that either i have to perform major firewall surgery or get a body man to redo the front fenders to shove the front suspension forward to get the best motor to front wheel centerline weight instal....
So a better solution came up, or so far it seems a better solution....
Keep the 3.0 and look to add the 3.0 mit DOC head or just put the entire 3.0 mit DOC in and of course adding a turbo down stream in the exhaust rather then off the manifold/header
Now with the doc head 3.0 i am going to put the motor in the RIGHT way... and im figuring so far that a rear suspension cradle from a supra or dodge conquest/starion would fit the cars width, and rather than add a 8.75 and links instal the complete rear suspension cradle from the supra, i think the supra might be better since no one is playing with axles for the conquest/starion..
Now i didn't search this on the site, but has anyone done this already ? has anyone already found that say another rear suspension cradle works better than what im figuring already ?
Any thoughts or facts please let me hear/read them.
