Does anyone in the seattle area do engine swap's for people? i'm looking to do a 1j swap in my supra in the near future and was wondering if anyone could or would know someone that does swaps for people. I don't want to take it to a race shop cause i think they'd probably do it wrong and over...

Hey. My friend walt refered me to you and was told that you do swaps. I'm looking to do a 1j swap and was wondering how much you'd charge to do the swap.

Don't really worry about name brand the torque wrenches at autozone and what not are just as good. You want to make sure you have two torque wrenches (click prefered). One for high torque numbers (150 ft lbs should be enough) and a smaller range one for the small jobs like torquing to 15 ft lbs...

Well i've done that. If you turn it once 360degrees around it'll be at tdc and when you do another 360 it becomes the opposite with the marks at 180. But i don't know what side is the compression stroke. Thats what i'm having trouble with. I've tried both sides and it doesn't start.

How to you find the compression stroke? I've tried to start my car with both sides and still no start. So i figured it was my cps. also does anyone know how to adjust the cps? I consulted the tsrm and it didn't help. I lined up the drill hole to the notch. I'Ve also tried adjusting it up and...
