Need some Info on 1uz swap into 82 Corolla SR5

[chungdokwan1980]

I am a novice in motor swap/conversion. I am looking into transplanting my motor from my 92 LS400 into a 1982 Toyota corrola SR5. I am wanting to keep it naturally aspirated , for now. 300 hp at flywheel would be nice. I want a manual, of course, but am not sure what tranny works best for this application. What kind of differential would I need and do I need a custom driveshaft? Also, I am wanting to make single exhaust, in order to keep it with sleeper look, but am not sure what diameter and what setup to use in order to get a nice tone. I am thinking 3" at Y collector to 2 1/2" out back. I am on a low budget, but dont want to settle for low quality either. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

This swap will be the similar as that into Sprinters, other 80's Corollas and even Celicas.

R&P steering will be needed if your car doesnt have it (i think it does).
Youll need a front-sump 1UZ.
If going manual, a W58 is the best choice (search the net/forum for whats needed).
Youll most probably need a new tailshaft.
The T series diff you have wont handle the power. There are a few options for larger diffs (F & G series).
