what if an aluminium pulley was turned up to have bearings in it?

try a wanted add on club4ag, you will find ae86's here are fairly rare here in Australia.

Would be cheaper to source one locally such as on club4ag than on here.

It will cost you significantly more to rebuild an engine, I say buy it

do you have a proper workshop manual? if so you yourself can check the diamter and see if they reusable.

your mechanic is full of shit, on some engines this is the case (torque to yeild bolts) but not on Toyota's. They determine the reusability of a bolt by checking the stretch. When they have too much stretch they get too thin and have to be replaced. This is right in the service manual if he doesn't want to listen to some random on the internet. I would trust Toyota bolts that have been used a few times over those non new non-genuine bolts that are probably chinese. Also if you buy a gasket set they should come with valve stems.

looks amazing, if you need a vacuum manifold let me know.

That's pretty much what I said, everyone says yes awesome. Once they hear the price they will be really quiet. Anything like this is worth serious cash, people think they can buy a custom head for the price of an old second hand K motor

watch everyone disapear when the real prices are revealed.

That's a first gen bigport head. If your really motivated change the valve stem seals and port the head while your at it. Otherwise they arn't known to have any issues.

do you mean that single cam 2L engine?

Holden Starfire!

post a picture of the intake ports. If the head is in ok condition then there's no need to "build it". By the way TRD head gaskets are cheap

it's the same as any other front wheel drive corolla with an A series engine, so a basic search will give you all the answers.

take a photo of it and post it on here

The only 4age with the Distributor on the rear of the engine is a 20V? Anyway a lot of your answers are in the FAQ section on this website: http://www.rollaclub.com/faq/index.php?title=Tech:Engine/A_Series/Converting_to_RWD look at the link at the top of this page

K20 engines do indeed spin the "correct" way like the F20C's. I don't like the way the JSP install of the Honda engines is done because he uses massive crossmember spacers.

I have one to suit a wagon, not sure if that's the same

this topic has been covered a few times, you need enough parts off the 4ag engine that you might as well buy the 4ag engine as it would be cheaper

how did you go, updates?

english a second language? serious question

apparently the front wheel drive 4ac engines didn't have the holes tapped for the engine mounts. Which isn't a hard job really assuming the holes are already the right size

your meant to remachine the big ends when you change rod bolts though "re-rounding". I would use what you have.

100mm is heaps also don't get me wrong I would do the same, I am just saying that people might have joked, nothing serious about it
