I'm running a n/a 4age toyota(1.6L, DOHC) with a 5 speed tranny out of a 1985 corolla gts. The engine is basicaly stock, but with a Donnie-fabricated hedder, and different setup for the incoming air. Sure sounds cool at 7200 RPM!

Last night was dyno night, as some of you may have read last week. It sure was cool!
The little sedan didn't dissapoint, and came through with 107.9 hp@6500rpm! Was I happy? YOU BET!!! I was totally expecting to see about 90 or so.
They want me to come back when I get the O2 sensor working and have a better setup for an air filter(none now). Basically it was running too rich. I'll post some pictures tonight.

I just noticed that the coupe has a engine mounted fan and a larger rad too....
When I did mine, I used the stock 1200 rad, but the water pumps are offset toward the right side of the engine, and a mechanical fan wouldn't work.
Even though the a12-spec rad is puny, it keeps the Toyota nice and cool. They have a rather large coolant capacity, and that electric fan works good too.

I'm in the lower mainland, just outside Vancouver, B.C. I saw the pics of the coupe. He did a good lookin install!
The engine fit in O.K., although it's longer than the a12, but an electric fan cured that problem.
The oil pan is a front sump design too. The only big problem was with the tranny tunnel, which got chopped out and a new one fabed up.
I'm hoping for 90-100 h.p. at the wheels!
