V8 yota

ok i wanna put a small v8 in my 93 what all is involved and what fits etc any help is appreciated

Small block ford will be your easiest, may not be the cheapest solution. Many companies have bellhousing adapters and motor mounts available for chevy and ford swaps.

The ford small block is ideal for the fact the lower portion of the motor is narrower, distributor is in the front and you can use the existing motor mounts in the frame.

disagree, small block chevy is cake. some custom mounts and a tranny tunnel is all. everything else is run of the mill.

RHD SBC FTW

what?

bs fos pb scbdfh haha figure those out

So a 289 or 302 would be easiest i guess. Will i be able to use the stock yota tranny?

Depends on whether or not you want to be smog legal. If you are running carbs, then either would work well , but harder to pass emmisions. If you are running fuel injection, you will have to have a wiring harness adapted. Fuel injection will make passing emmisions easier. Either way you go you have to think of radiator, accessories, hood clearance, headers, rear-end, drive shaft length, etc. Before I decided to not finish my truck, I had an LT-1 350 out of a Z28 in my framerails. I was going to use an S-10 wiring harness and fusebox to completely rewire the truck and build a stand alone harness to run the ecu, etc. My biggest issue was finding D-port headers that would work in the space and not break the bank. The LT-1 fits under the stock hood with the rockers laying hard and makes close to 300 hp without any mods. With minor computer enhancements and headers it could easily 320-350. With OBD-1 LT-1's, you can use a computer program to turn different things on and off and set your shift points (auto 4L60E), or even run a 5 or 6 speed. I had a limited slip Ford 9" (same bolt pattern) with 20x10 rear wheels to hook it to the street.

i need to find a web site that sells parts for a V8 swap like a bell housing and moter mounts. any one know any?

i think downey offroad sells those bellhousing kits to adapt the stock yota tranny to a small block. you could try lookin at their website.


phatboi, where do you come up with that stuff? i couldnt even understand that...lol
