Just looking to see if anyone has ran a 1997 Chrysler LHS and how did you do? I know its got a big wheelbase for a compact so its more of a mid size car. If there is a thread started please let me know. I may have overlooked it. Thanks.

Tried running 3 of them, timing chain system is awful once you take a hard hit the chain jumps time and your done. Junk in my opinion

Yes I've run them. I like them for stock type chain and bang. I have several pics I'll post later.

Will try to keep this thread on a permanent basis in the locator. I will appropriately change the title later. Intrepid, LHS, Concorde.

Use a good front bumper, ford wheels bolt right on, the backs will go in and up with no notches or tucking. The car in the above pics won against a mixed field of mid size 6 cyl and crown vics.
