Sounds about right.

I want to see the K go back to turbo 4 cylinder power. All bow to the glory of the turbo.

Looks like you have a typo - since 6 > 4, and it already _has_ a six in it, and two turbos are better than one. . .

In other words, K + 3000GT = ?


you are talking about adding turbos, so this is a good answer.

Answer with great care:

1. One of the Kardashians?
2. The fiancee?
3. Or the K?

Mostly 2, followed by 3, and some of 4.

I've lost track. Has someone adopted the K, or is it still sitting at Overzet's place?

Re: WHO WANTS THE K ITS FOR NEW OWNER SPANK WORTHINGTON DEAL FREE!

I believe one of his teammates took it for buttonwillow.  If it comes back available, we will do what it takes to adopt it.  We have ideas...bad ones

If you people really want to bolt on more power and less reliability, you should start with DOHC heads (or the whole engine, if this block is toast again... I don't remember). The engine in the K is the SOHC 6G72 that came in domestic Chryslers, not the DOHC 6G72 that came in the 3000GT/Stealth. Then when that blows up, you can add turbos.

Also, does the clutch still activate when your knee is up in your chin, or did someone fix that already?

That's standard 80's Mopar FWD clutch function, sadly.

Re: WHO WANTS THE K ITS FOR NEW OWNER SPANK WORTHINGTON DEAL FREE!

I repo'd it last Saturday from Chris.  It's sitting pretty in lodi for the moment.  Plan is to throw another awesome take out engine from an acclaim or something back in.  Highly doubt the engine in it is worth trying to save.  Will be replacing atleast the water pump, timing belt, and a few other unsung hero parts on whatever engine we wind up with.  K was actually running great before disaster struck.  No fuel starvation problems as far as I know (we got 3 race hours out of it).  And ya, the clutch is still jacked.  The cable chris had was too long, so we just dealt with what we had.  I think it has about 3" of free play.  Hopefully someone will have a running K at the end of button willow to keep K ing it forward, but optimism seems to be the enemy of this damn car, so who knows?

Not in this country. You could get a Chrysler Voyager overseas with a VM Motori diesel, but that's about as close as it gets.
