I started working on my '93 Toyota I bought with a blown V6 this weekend.
I am starting this thread to document my progress, and solicit advice.
Pulled the engine and test fit the 1uz. No way is it going to fit without a lift kit. The tranny needs to come up. I took a closer look at some other build threads, and everyone has the oil pan sitting above the front diff and steering damper. Cab has to go up so to make room for the tranny tunnel and the hood to close. I'd rather not lift it, but oh well.
I may have to modify the one tube on the drivers header to clear the steering better. We'll see how it looks sitting a bit higher.
Bought the wrong bellhousing, D'oh!! I would of sworn the truck had a W56, but it has a R150F, which is better. Not having any success getting a response from KS racing on return, and restocking, etc. I might just buy another, and sell this one on ebay. Probably save me money on return shipping.
Starting to sort out Megasquirt with edis. First projects will be the nuts and bolts stuff.
I am planning on bolting the 36-1 wheel to the crank pulley, perhaps washers to space it out. I wonder if the VR sensor will read properly with the wheel right next to the pulley, which is slightly bigger diameter.
