That is one sharp looking oval though , THE best generation of explorer IMO. I wouldn't mind being caught driving one of those, not one of the new gen that bankers and realtors drive.
Actually, I wasn't. Isn't that CRAZY. That flex was WITH my sway bars ON with just 1.5" shackles in the rear and 31" tires. Impressive, eh?

heres my 89 camaro RS. its awaiting a 350 LT1 swap with other goodies, 700r4 upgrade and rebuild, new interior + racing seats, and body work + paint.

These were the shots of when we first got it at the end of summer. Right now, I have stripped the interior from the trunk to the dash, and the front clip and fenders are off to help witht he motor swap. As you can see in the pics, the clearcoat is coming off really bad. It flakes off almost like its plastic. Hopefully I can get the rest of the money to get my LT1 soon. I cant wait.

my '91 Cutlass Supreme sedan with 3.1 Intercooled Turbo/Getrag 282 5-speed engine swap:







here is my old Lebaron GTS Turbo. it'* a factory 'Turbo II' car with the bulletproof A555 5-speed (1 of only 268 produced with the Intercooled 'Turbo II'). it even had factory ASC power moonroof and leather interior (most comfortable seats i've ever sat on!)







not bad looking for having 238,000 miles i just sold it about a month ago. it had 2.5" JRB mandrel bent exhaust, M&M Racing grainger valve MBC, M&M Racing overboost eliminator (adjustable zener diode), Magnecore KV85 wires, 1g DSM BOV, Shelby Lancer lowering springs, etc. it still had the stock Garrett T3 turbo and side-mount intercooler. it was pretty quick with 17psi!

my brother/roomate is also an old school Turbo Dodge nut, here are his rides:

'86 Omni GLH Turbo with 2.5 Turbo, BIG NPR intercooler and LOTS of other stuff:





'87 Shelby Lancer #127 (currently undergoing DOHC TIII/A568 5-speed swap):



'91 Spirit R/T (Intercooled Turbo DOHC 16-valve Lotus headed 'Turbo-III'):

back when the TIII was out getting redone:




nice & clean now with LWP rebuilt head & valve job, LWP stage-I cams, ported exhaust manifold, +20 injectors, Accufab AFPR, FWDPerformance billet fuel rail with fuel pressure gauge, full 3" mandrel bent exhaust, FWDPerformance adjustable cam sprockets, A568 5-speed with 3.50 FDR & OBX LSD, etc etc. it is FAST and he'* only had it up to 10psi so far. it will blow the doors off my Turbo Cutlass.

'89 Shadow ES Turbo 5-speed (a drunk driver totalled this one ). it had the the 2.5 'Turbo I' but with 14psi, 3" mandrel bent exhuast, Garrett T3 'TII' turbo and a big NPR intercooler it was quick enough to easily run away from a non SC Saleen S281 from a dig up to 100mph.

sandrock, you have video exhaust clips of the exhaust. I'm curious on how it sounds...
