What would a smallblock converted Daytona weight? I have always thought about doing this but I didn't know a suspension crossmemeber was produced to do it.

There were a ton of these littl L bodies that were really straight in a salvage not far from me a couple of years ago. Daytonas, Lasers, Chargers, etc.

Considered the work involved and potential resale value and passed.

Besides, the Dodge Conquests and Mitsubishi Starions were much cooler and already RWD.

Hey I have a boat too. I bought it for myself as a retirement gift in 2010. One of these days I'm going to use it.

Mine is not on the street anymore but it is also the Turismo version. I acquired it from a member here back in 08. It was at one point on the street long before I had it and has the Mopar Performance conversion in it. I back halved and have run a best of 10.60@124 with a .020 over 360. It still has the stock struts up front. I wish I could get the front end done but have been waiting just to buy a complete roller.

I hope im doin this right the way im puttin this on here. and whoever posted the original question i dont mean to steal your light from your post. but i have somewhat of a similar situation, somewhat. i bought a chrysler crossfire and obviously its rear wheal drive so, different from your deal, but i went and pulled a 360 magnum from a durango and im rebuilding it right now and i was just wondering if anyone knows of anyone who has ever done this swap or is in the process of it. if you can point me in the right direction too i'll gladly post this question in another section.

Not a Daytona but here's my old 82 Dodge charger that was a pro street roller when I bought it. Redid the cage to chrome moly and with a .030 over trw piston 440, stock crank, and 906 heads would run 10.0's all day long. Very fun car. All metal and stock glass.

I saw a Dodge Conquest with a SB. Didn't look too hard of a swap.
