Default New car, new member

Hey all i'm new here. I am buying my friend's 1988 Dodge Shadow with 89k miles on the clock. It was owned by a grandma for years and years so... you guessed it, it's in pristine shape. White ext. on red int. Car runs AMAZING. Real good buy for only... $750. Ha!

I know some stuff about the smaller Dodges as having a friend who was obsessed with his Dodge Omni. I know about the GLH and such.

I dont plan on instantly hunting down a GLH engine or a Shelby engine or even rebuilding one of the turbo engines out my local junkyard (where there's quite a few). I plan on driving this baby many many miles since its so low. This will give me more time to concentrate on my Supra Turbo [sm=smiley4.gif]

So... the one thing I do not know is... what are the specs on my engine? Heck, whats the engine code? lol.

Go easy on me guys. You wont hear me ask stupid questions such as 'Do they make NOS kits for my car???' or 'Where can I get a body kit??' and stuff. I'm not that kind of guy lol.

Thanks everyone!

-Will
