pete Posted June 6, 2010 Share Posted June 6, 2010 New to the club, really glad I found this place. This was my first vehicle, my dad picked it up when it was completely stock for $1200.

CaffeineSam Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 Looks great, those rims are pimp ! How well does the 2.8 fares once modded like that ? Did you have it dynoed ? Nice mud bath too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete Posted June 7, 2010 Author Share Posted June 7, 2010 Looks great, those rims are pimp ! How well does the 2.8 fares once modded like that ? Did you have it dynoed ? Nice mud bath too. Thanks! As far as the 2.8 it was depressingly week when I fist got the vehicle. I decided to save up a bit and do it right and now I couldn't be happier with the power gains. It is completely stripped of all the emissions control items, tubing, etc. I will have to get a picture up of it so you can see the difference. I have not gotten it dynoed yet but I know it has well over what it did from factory :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pete Posted June 7, 2010 Author Share Posted June 7, 2010 Cool, I always liked the looks of cleaned out, Edelbrock-equipped engines ! It runs and drives like a dream! I may be getting another Comanche, same as mine was originally but automatic (trading an RV for it hopefully). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
