91 Daytona Shelby TI 5speed I have recently purchased.
The car had a blown piston in #3 when I bought it. The car had a Autozone crate motor in it which turns out to be a 2.2
block with a 2.5 crank, no balance shafts, and light weight rods. I ended up getting factory replacement pistons .30 over from
FWD Performance, also purchased rings, bearings, and bushings. Used a MP4452006 head gasket from the local
dealership also. The rods were replaced with TII rods from another 2.5 motor I had here. The engine is now
back together and running. I had to replace the FPR which may have been why the piston was blown in the first place.
I still need to get the car registered and put some break in miles on it before winter. I will probably repaint the car
this winter. I'm thinking about a two tone black on top and the factory red on the bottom. We'll see
