Chris' 1986 GLHS L4 Bodies page


Owner: Angelo Taylor
Stats: The Matchbox! - 11.89 @ 118 mph
Mileage: 
Here's the real animal...You can see the remote oil filter, the NOS lines, the old style Mopar intercooler, the ram air tubing going from left of radiator to throttle body, & the original Turbo I motor with it's original head. Not so noticable is the J E forged pistons that came from Forward Motion. The car still has it's original radio to boot! Transaxle is none other than an automatic - set to shift at 5600 rpm when flat out. Engine monitoring is via a custom set of Autometer gauges to the right of the dash-to-floor console. Check out the following victories: NHRA Track Class Points Champion: 1985, 86, 87, 88, 89, 91, 92, 92, 93, and 96. (In 1992 I was the track champ at two tracks in two classes)
