Dasfincs 92 LS Powered CX Build thread
 

Figure I've really just been lurking, and selling stuff on here that I finally show what I have, and what I have in-store:

Some brief history:

Car was bought in 1992 brand new off the lot by my mother and father. Dad kept the car in their divorce in 97, He then got in trouble with IRS the IRS in 2006, and signed the car over to me so they wouldn't come after it, and because he 'promised' me the car when I was like 15 (well I'm turning 21 in a week, so he kinda took his time on that one since I already owned a 2007 ford focus, live on my own, and am engaged...)

Here she is when I first got it:

8 valves of Fury!

I then swapped to a D15B7 head, then I swapped to a D16Y8 head

D16Y8 goodness:

Got sick of having no torque, so I went and snagged this bad boy (1996 B18B1, $250 baby!):

You're not ballin until you get an auto cluster

Re: Dasfincs 92 LS Powered CX Build thread
 

Pretty much ;) :8

I'm aiming to get into the mid-high 15's since the car will be stripped out before hitting the track, i know its not a real screamer, but it ran an 18.5 with the D15B7 head so its worlds different.

Damn that e-bay could use some purple power.

I've cleaned it off since I took pics.

It had 3 headgasket failures and a radiator explode with the old D-series motors, made a HUGE mess each time.
