1983 corolla 5mge project.
so basically i am donating my engine from my supra seeing as i am going 1uz.
the car is an auto 1983 corolla with 4ac. the engine is a 84 5mge block, with an 84 head i had machined and polished. were blocking egr. and going carbs we think that one will be cheaper but 2 would be funner. .w58 ,new clutch. probly custom drive shaft. just put in new valve stem seals in today and next weekend i am going to install the rest of the valves. the next weekend will come head gasket, and egr block off. and maby the carbs. were not looking to make power, just to have a 5m with carbs. the car was 400 dollers and the engine is just sitting so we really both dont care. pictures comin soon |

ok back from the dead. we have worked our way back to EFI i possibly a turbo, all we need is the turbo an IC and a RRFPR i have the rest.
i ordered bearings all round and the block is going in for machine work shortly... hopfully some progress and pics soon!!! |
What brought you back to the side of light and good?
|
lost a fabricator that was offering good free work, so with the amount of money we have for the project efi will do just fine.
the corolla was nice mint. but took a b pillar smashing, its been pulled out and the door works with a plexiglass window, but without a new drivers door it wont ever look the same LOL |
it would be alot of fun to buy some 5me low comp pistons, and slap a turbo the 5mge.:dunno:
|
well long story short the build just got awesome.
i picked up a complete 7mge block, and a complete 7mge motor for a mere 85$ and i will be making a hybrid 6mge. been wanting to do this a while and will be using a 84 5mge head and pistons with a 7mge block crank and rods. all timing gears will be 5m. gona be sick... |
7m block got picked up from the machine shop yesterday. sadly i either lost or sold the rear timing cover that bolts to the head, so the head needs to go in again...
