What year

77celi · 07-15-2007, 12:49 AM

I got the motor from Foreign Engines. They don't know the exact year. I told them I need a motor for a 87 supra n/a

Where is the number located? I looked all over the block and could not find anyother number.

I also needed to know this info but I looked around for a long time and I found out that you cant tell the year with the motor you must need to know the vin from the car with the motor.

I have no way of knowing what car it came out of. Is there a year to year difference? I have heard that the 86.5-88 and the 89-92 are the same. What is the difference between the two?

The 88+ 7m motors uses the true 7m crank
While the pre 88 motors uses a 6m crank

So I've heard
Somebody cement this claim for me

So there is no easy way of telling what year it is?

im on my second supra

never bothered me what year they were
although you can tell if its usdm or jdm

but as long as they run good, the year shouldnt matter
