Daytona or Laser ... they are out there still.




Thanks! Guess I never really paid any attention which body code those cars were?

So if I bought an 82 Rampage 2.2 with an automatic and got a little crazy and decided to change the drivetrain from a Daytona or Laser with a 2.2 and a 5-speed, it ought to get the little Page rockin' better than the original 2.2 and automatic and get better fuel economy??




As I said and so did dragon .... THIS is a swap that is complex. Just buy a Daytona or maybe even a Neon with a stick. BUTTT honestly ...I have my mind set on a 2 dr Omni or Horizon with a 1.7(VW engine) and a 4 speed stick with that GOOOOOD OD. I have put a wanted ad here and other places for it without any luck so far.

There are HUGE real-world mpg potentials with that combo.
