The carb mating surface does have coolant flowing around it and a little hole. Found this out when I put on my 32/36 and read in the directions to drain the coolant. I thought there was no need and nearly filled my intake full of coolant.
Nice yota, I'm a newbie, Mr B. But like the stance of your truck. Do you know what was used to lower it. Spindles and rear spring blocks?
Building a project car/truck is all about balancing your time and never loosing sight of the end goal! Just keep truckin!
Many people get distracted by other interest. I know a few people they get into to many things without finishing one even close to "complete." Or the one I really hate to see the old completing the build so they can actually sell it when you know that was never an attention of theirs. Time and money can get to people. I'm ride or die for most of my things.
I remember a time where I traded a 4dr 66 Chevelle Malibu for a 2drr hardtop 59 Edsel Ranger. Sweet ride, always wanted one just this one has no drive train.. first engine 5.0, had a crack in cylinder 3.. went 5.8 block and never went into the car. . . For 4 years!! SMDH ..just to trade for a 17' 95 Sea-Doo boat..hahaha
Too bad my truck won't be done in time for All Toyota fest in June. Great show in Long Beach. Might register my 86 MR2 tho
Caught myself on yotashop.com for like 2 days adding to cart! Lmao might do .040 over instead of .060..
You running std bore in your block? Have you heard of ppl going 94 mm pistons with stock block? I'm looking to go 93mm with aims for 7500 rpm,
Im .020 over on the 22r block. I think for the later blocks you can run those but something like a 20r you might start running into casting flaws at 94mm.
First post! Since today, I've been putting my 'Yota to good use hauling two large couches, that long bed sure is sweet!!!
What's a better route?! Locker style diff with 31spline ring and pinion upgrade with maybe 4.88 gearing.. Or explorer 8.8 posi. But then have to shorten the driver side and still have to beef that up.. ?
You mean like ABS plastic they make defusers out of? Sounds like it could hold up to the abuse if you get thick enough! Are you going to keep/make handles or integrate the oem ones? I never thought about using plastic, seems like a good idea..
I got new door handles to match the black and blue theme, Dark blue handles, and black cover, I also have some cheap window cranks at the ready, I even have the mounting hardware, but I still need the either aluminum, or ABS plastic. I think ill post a few pictures of the stuff I have ready for the doors. :)
