well the motor in the turbo truck finally took a dump. at 250K+ miles I figured it was only a matter of time before something gave... yup it threw a rod. Not bad milage for a turbo engine eh?

So, I'm gunna build up a new motor and stick it in. Looking for a 22r (1986 style) thats in decient shape. Oh and I could use a engine hoiste if anyone has one I could borrow as well...

Thanks

 

I have 3, But since im looking to do a RTE swap to my celica, i need a ecu and harness, cant seem to find one, or a good complete motor.............. apparently they are too "rare"

 

just wondering... how much would you pay for a complete 22rte setup with a thrown rod?

 

Already told you, and I think its way to much for a motor that has to be rebuilt. I was gonna give you 500, but i dont think its worth that....

 

oh your the guy mark was asking me about that for. (he never told me who). how much for one of those 22r blocks you have?

 

there are alot of differences between the regular 22r and the RTE so i would stick with the rte block. how bad did it throw the rod?

 

donno havn't taked it apart yet. no piston through the block or anything like that though. It threw it after it was knocking and I was just trying to move the truck and was keeping the revs low. I'll probably reuse the engine block itself, but I'm sure I'll need to replace a bunch of the internals...

I Think for now I'll just install a normal 22r block while I rebuild/build up this one so I can drive it. I have to many non working cars... So anyone have a good 22r block to sell me?

 

cophers does. we should go get one.

 

throw in an sr20
