GLH = a fucking awesome car.

GLH stands for goes like hell". It was dodges response to the european 4 bangers coming in to the country, such as the rabbit GTI. (It has always been known as a golf in Europe)

Their were 4 types of GLH during its production years of 84 to 87.

GLH = 110hp
Omni GLH 2.2l Turbo charged 142hp
&
GLHS = 2.2l Turbo charged with intercooler. 175hp (Official Car and Driver ET times = 14.9), while Dodge boasted a 14.6-14.7 ET.

I am a huge fan of these cars, sadly they are extremely"""" hard to find anywhere nowadays..finding a GLHS for sale is even harder. Only 3285 GLH's were made in 84 alone.... so your chances of finding an actaul "GLHS" from 85 = slim to none.

The nearest comparable Big 3 comparision car of the time was the Mustang SVO in 84, with a 2.3l 175hp turbo charged + intercooler. it ran its ET in 15.9... I kind of see Arkans comments as part of his hate for 4 bangers in general. biggrin:
