Nah, didn't disagree THAT much because I knew it wouldn't be some carbed motor from the 50's in the most technologicly advanced car Toyota made at the time.

No, I'll race you if you can make it up to the track at Kansas City.

That is, if you don't have to change the jets in your carb to come up here.

Ok, I'll be sure to bring you a couple spare headgaskets i have so you can make it back home.

Alright, I'll let you know your searching skills suck, especially when you should click on the link in my sig. to see that I have no use for said spare headgaskets.

Thanks.

How do you plan on running the fuel pump, tach, and all of the other electronics that are dependent on the stock ecu?

I have an aftermarket tach, and i also have a water temp and oil pressure for the pillar pod. Im putting the ecu and a chopped up harness back in the car, just so i can make the oil pressure and coolant temp work. I dont know a way to make the stock tach work though?

I can't remember how the guy did it in the car i rode in, but everything worked except the speedo. I should've bought that car.

Hot damn Poodles, you just got called out son. I'd like to see this race go down. Vids too please.

svnmpwr: why not 406? You'd get more power under the curve. Would make a better dragstrip motor wouldn't it?

With a 3800 stall i dont really need low end power, and i wanted a high revving motor :naughty:

I could do a Geo Metro and people would still ahh and ohhh :p

It's NOT me it's the demented things I do :runaway:

Notice I'm NOT bagging the OP's build, I'd help out in any way I can as it's "different", if he want's need's my advice/help I'm here!

Tach should be easy enough for an instrument shop to get working again, please DON'T put 37 Monster tachs in it ;)
