    Ideal cruising revs??

    sorry to be a noob. but this is what this whole topic is based on... and i just don't get it. how does the engine use less fuel @ 2600rpm than what it does @ 2000rpm?? if that was the case wouldnt they make the engine idle at this speed to reduce fuel consumption?? to add to this...

    just out of curiosity AGRO.. i've got the old Zoom mag your car featured in and the recent SM. just how much of a difference has the blower made?? performance wise? fuel wise? smoothness? etc.

    vl conversion

    10%?? at least. get your rough final estimate....then double it if its your first converison. ;) hmmm VL brakes... ask ur engineer. may need (VN) V8 spec on there. not sure. wouldn't hurt anyway. i would think they would be fine tho.

    vl conversion

    $5k for an RB26?? is that engine only with no tranny?? with a tranny these go for more like $7k- $8k for an R32. if you got one with no tranny for $5k you've done well. maybe for a bare engine with no loom etc.

    FI air flow meter position

    the 7MGTE boys use the 1uz AFM as an upgrade in high performance modding of their engine. where do they place it? wherever it is it must be fine to have it there.

    1uz into VK help.

    if your looking where to buy half-cuts from get to your newsagency and buy "Zoom" magazine. half the magazine is ads for j@p engines and the other half is good articles on engine conversions anyway.

    Exhaust size and components for 1UZFE in 4Runner/Surf

    as long as all the exhaust gas runs through a cat it is fine. so either have a cat for each bank, or have a single cat just after the pipes merge into one. dont go any smaller than single 2.25" whateva you do. that is the minimum you'd want it for a single system. i'm actually doing a twin...
