1990 Dodge Caravan
Added on Feb. 26 by Vigo

Rare factory 5spd manual van. Got it up to 33mpg once. Ran 18.2@73.

I converted it to turbo but then never got it running last year. I’ll probably get it running in the next few months, then immediately motor swap it again to a 3.0 sohc 6g72 v6 with an m90 roots blower on top. And it’ll still be 5spd.

I also have plans for a Nashco-esque hybridization involving AWD, but mine will be way easier and probably less cool. :p

Got all my parts together for the 3.0 swap except a pressure plate. I did finish the turbo swap at some point, got it up to 14 psi and tore around in it for a while. Good fun, but not ambitious/different enough, so more swappage it is.
