[kissmyaxle]

how much did the engine cost?

[atTITude]

hell yes i am interested!

lets see more

I paid $1500 for the complete engine, wiring harness, computer, alternator, starter, rad, intercooler, and oil cooler. The only other parts i needed were the motor mounts from a 5m motor and the bellhousing from a w58 transmission and a flywheel. There were still many other things i needed to buy. I had to install a new high flow/volume fuel pump along with new fuel lines. For the exhaust i used a high flow cat and 2 chamber flow master both 3". I havn't mounted the intercooler just cause i don't know where to put it i mounted dual electric fans out of 2 honda's in the front rad support. I have 4.10's and 35's but with this engine i can start in second gear. And once that turbo spools up it hauls. I am extremely happy with it

I might do a detailed writeup once i find some webspace
until then ill answer any questions

I wouldn't mind if you were to post/email me a couple more pics of that bumper though... me likes.

 

[lord-wolf]

I can put your writeup on my website... I found you the space now write the article

 

[Gullygossner]

wow that's tight and tiiiiiight . good lookin swap the power rating on those things is like 220hosre?? or something like that, did you tweek it at all??

 

[Yoda_Man]

mine is out of an 87 so stock its got 230 with my exhaust and air filter i figure ive got over 250. Im thinkin of buy'n another engine and build'n it up for some serious power. Ill see if i can get some more pics of the bumper. The early motors are a lot easier to put in but offer a lot less power around 160 i think and are not turbo
Ill start making a write-up
thanx

Awesome! I have decided I want to swap a motor within the next couple of years, just can't decide between the supra motor or the 3.4.

 

[Skydigger]

Yoda,

Did you have to change drivetrain at all to handle that extra power?

 

[Yoda_Man]

not yet i have the stock w56 and rear diff
i think im gonna go with the v6 third with either a detroit or arb
but who knows only time will tell how well its gonna hold up

 

[Toytrx]

If it came stock with an intercooler and you're not running one be careful of detonation.... Also, I'd figure around 230fwhp without the IC, 250 def with the IC maybe a bit more:*******

No doubt it hauls some seroius ass tho

 

[Guest]

[Yoda_Man]
