13T-U

[Istartfires]

Would it be a good ideato do a 13t-u conversion into my ksev? I am thinking about buying a defected t18 (on the forum here) and putting the motor in. How hard would this conversion be and what else would I need ? Any imput is good.

I would have searched but I don't know how on my iPhone

I'm sure you mean 3T-U. My dad put a 3T in my KE70 when I moved on to a AE71.

T18 = steering box

Ke70 = rack and pinion.

 

Cross members are not interchangeable unless you can cut the rack mounts off and re-weld them.

 

Custom mounts ?

T18 engine mounts onto an ae71 crossmember will get it done and then the appropriate blue plate (or whatever colour they have in your state)

So not a bolt in affair? I'm pretty bad when it comes to cars but I hope my mate can help me.

There is such a thing as a 13TU, and I believe it did come in T-18s...

Yes. I stand corrected. A 1770CC T series engine. I imagine in would be the same block again. a 85/78 Bore and Stroke. No doubt a much large combustion chamber and high top pistons... produced 95 hp (71 kW) at 5400 RPM and 109 ft·lbf (147 N·m) at 3400 RPM

ISTARTFIRES, it would be a bolt in affair if you get the things you need, 1. You will need a ae71 pedal box or hydraulic clutch master and slave cylinder, and the line, 2. An ae71 crossmember, and i think a ae71 gearbox crossmember and it'll just about bolt in and run :) hope that helps, and 13T-U's do exsist i had one from a t18 in my old ta22 then i broke it haha

You just use the t18 engine mounts and apparently it'll go straight in

Would I need too swap radiators or anything like that?

[SLW42]

Yeah probably a good idea unless you wanna flip the k rad upside down to get it happening right haha, cause the t series motors top rad hoses are on the right side, and bottom on the left, and k series is in reverse :)

You can just turn the thermostat housing 180 degrees to match the top inlet of your radiator.
