Well sorta.. It's coming from Canada and will take a while to ship. The wife wanted something to take out and embarrass some locals. This should do the trick. Right now it sits at just over 300whp with a nearly stock turbo and is 2700lbs. Fully built 2.5 engine and A413 auto. A new turbo will be on the way as soon as the wire clears.

Those cars are alot of fun, I had 4 Dodge Omni GLH Turbos, back in the day. I just past up a deal for 2 87 Shelby chargers with the 2.2 turbos for $1200.00, a month or so back. Great fun cars, the only problem is parts. CV shafts, support bearing for the shafts, and on certain ones even brake parts, are no longer made by nobody, even after market. I sold Harry a Dodge Spirit R/T that was the 2.2 DOHC intercooled Lotus headed motor also..:bigthumb:

They are fun but expensive when they break. Thought about getting another one but decided to stick with th 8 valve.

I guess I am going to show my age, but back in 88-89 I had one of my GLH turbos running 9.0s with a Walmart fish tank bleeder and a 125 shot. All I had was street tires and when they start spinning the tires they just continue to go the direction they are headed no steering. Funny thing was the Corvette of the 80's, couldn't catch it..:bigthumb:

300 months for me.
In the mid 80's, I had a 71' 240Z that beat up on 5.0 Mustangs and Z28's at Dorchester. Side stepping the clutch at 4-5,000 was a blast in that tin can. Back then, running low 9's was decent for the average street car.
I also forgot to say nice ride to the OP.

Forgot to say, Nice ride. It ought to be fun with 300whp and an auto.

I had a dodge shadow, lil 2.2 turbo and a mbc on stock turbo, i also had a box of head gaskets to change every other week, could do it in about 30 mins, remove valve cover, loosen head bolts, put jack under turbo manifold and raise. slip in a new gasket, g2g!!
Sold it to my sis for pennies on the dollar, her asshole bf blew a hold in the block 200 miles from home on alligator alley in fl.
I always remember my dad talking about the GLH's, they GO LIKE HELL!
