89' Dodge Daytona "Decepzione" Prototype = Lamborgini Jalpa V8 stuffed into an 88' Daytona Shelby Z
Why? Why not! For a few years Chrysler owned Lamborghini, hence bringing this idea to light.
Why wouldn’t you try to stuff a 250HP Lamborghini Jalpa transverse V8 into a Dodge Daytona?
It was even AWD, designed by Carroll Shelby himself, a challenge in itself, as the Daytona is a FWD car.
It was claimed that the prototype didn’t proceed onward due the oil pan of the V8 being only 1.5in clearance from the ground, you can see this in the first image

Hey! I have seen quite a few of your posts, where do you get the pictures from? I’m working on an 80’s article right now (and have been for 3 days) and I need some pics (it’s going to be the biggest article I’ve made to date, and possible the biggest on CarThrottle).
I will give you credit for the pictures that you sent me (if I don’t already have them XD).
This is the site I’ve been using (aside from google) http://www.lov2xlr8.no/broch1.html

Some I have saved from years of research related to my builds and turbododge forums, or just memory and google searches. I’d be happy to help out if your looking for anything in particular
