I have been getting a lot of the same questions. Hopefully this will help.

The previous owner bought the car from a guy in Florida, up until he bought it, the car spent it's life in the south, so it is a clean rust free car. He bought it with a DSS 306, the turbo kit and TKO600. He had some issues with it and ended up splitting the block on the dyno. He bought the Dart longblock and fuel system used (had 5k miles) from another Corral member. He lost interest and never got the car put back together.

I bought the car in March of 2013, in pieces. I bought a UPR Chromoly k-member, Siemens Deka 80lb injectors and a bunch of miscellaneous stuff to get the car back together. I finally got the car finished and tuned in October of 2013. It made 666/664 at 13.5 psi on 91 octane pump gas.

The weekend after having it tuned, the TKO stuck in 5th gear. I trailered it home, pulled the trans and started researching the T56 Magnum swap. I finished the swap in April, using a used T56 (2k miles) new spec clutch, new bellhousing, new pilot bearing and TOB. While the car was down, I had the filler neck and bungs welded to the valve covers and had them powder coated. I installed the breather setup and also had a bung welded to the oil pan for the oil return.

Shortly after this, while on a poker run, the fuel pump relay melted from the turbo heat. I replaced the relay and moved the wiring inside the fender on the passenger side. I also noticed that the heater core had begun to leak, so I looped the heater tubes to keep the antifreeze from leaking on the carpet.

After that, the fuel pump started leaking. I pulled the pump to send it in to be resealed, and found that it was 12 years old. I decided to have Aeromotive rebuild it instead. The day after receiving my pump, they sent back a "refurbished" pump that had a build date of 0714.

After all of this, the alternator fan started hitting the turbo, which caused a couple fins to break off and shred the belt. So I just put a new (junkyard) fan on the alternator and replaced the belt with a shorter one. The car got hot when this happened and spewed some antifreeze. I haven't seen any signs of damage from it though.

The car does have subframe connectors, they're bolted in with the seats and welded at both ends.

I'm not running a boost controller of any type.

All of the suspension, other than was has already been listed, is stock. Front control arms, rear control arms, everything is stock.

The brakes are stock, it's still rolling on the factory 4 lug. Nothing special here.

The rear has 3.55 gears, I'm not sure what the differential is.

There are a few little ripples in the trunk lid on the driver's side.

I think that about cover's everything. I'll try to get some more pics today of the turbo and trunk lid.

Man this is one sweet ride. Not too far away either as I'm in NE kansas. Really wish it was an AC car... looking for something like this that could be a fun street toy and still enjoy cruising around
