Can't wait to hear how it goes. You have a 4AGE, right? There is a coupe with the same engine in Vancouver, WA. Donnie, are you in the greater Vancouver, BC area?

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!

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.
