Clearance was pretty tight, but I was able to squeeze it in without even needing to do custom headers. Crossmember needed to be cut and redone around the oil pan though.

 

dude

Thanks for the positive responses and those that 'get' what my goals were with the car. You may have more engine options down there than I do here but there is nothing (here) that would have the output (and more potential), be reliable, and be available cheap as hell at any scrapyard.

 

If I had more money, or wanted a canyon carver, no doubt I would have gone with something else. But I'm a cheapass college student living in Orlando; no hills, straight roads, the car fits my needs perfectly :lolcry:

 

I wish there were more old school Corolla's around here, but just aren't that many still running around

no it wont be registrable at all. ke30s came out with something like 1.2 or 1.3 litres.

 

that lump of metal you call a motor is a 3.8 litre pushrod low revving iron block 3 tonne weighing piece of junk.

 

unless you cut the firewall out and have the engine sitting next to you its a nice way to turn a cool car into a front heavy poor handling bogan crap box.

 

I have a low revving, pushrod, iron block 6cyl. Does this make my car a bogan crap box?

 

 

Oh, Fuzzkill.

 

I read your whole thread. Amazing work. My first car was a KE25 too :lolcry:
