looking at that calc, what is the max cfm on the early 1uz heads?

SC would be nice, my brother had a pearl white 98 great car, had 244k on it and drove like new, but have a 5yr old, and a 9mo old... so i have a couple years still before the 5yr old is out of the car seat, thus killing the supra dream and the SC, so for now, LS it is... and i love fast sedans...

Steve - agreed, so atleast here in a month or two when i pull my money out of this house i will know for sure and have a nice little build diary here, have wanted to do this for years, but my dreams of my old supra kept me from it, now with 2 kiddos the supra is out of the question, 4Door...

ya, thats a centrifugal though, nothing wrong with that, just not my direction... so, on a 93-94 (finally convinced the boss to let me get a 93-94) how bad is the hood clearance on a m112? or does anyone know?

well, the boss says i need to buy a 98+ just based on it being a daily driver.. so there goes getting one to immediately SC, and my buddy that has my old 92SC400 1UZ wants to give it back, never even got a chance to ask.. so i will very slowly start building the bottom end of the motor and...

so, is the only difference the intake port shapes / locations?

ya, a buddy of mine is still holding a short block i bought 5 yrs ago, i think he still has it... if i remember right it was a 92 SC400 block (front sump), it would mean i already had some larger rods and block.. means i could pull the rods, or build the block.. still the issue of no current FI...

and the list of changes would go on forever i am sure... well for now i have to wait anyway, if i can find a great deal, really great deal on a 98+ i may just buy and drive with very little modding. but if i find a really clean 93-94 black on black... that will be the winner.. only time will tell

ya, i looked on autotrader this morning (i work for them as an IT guy) there is alot of the older out there, and alot look good, just cannot get past all the features in the 98+... well, have a month or two until i purchase one, so i am sure i will go back and forth on it... if you put the...

i knew that would be the answer...darn... i love the pre-95's, but it is so hard to find one in really good condition, would really like to NOT have to do any paint or body work. and the newer interior shifter is so much prettier.. SPF- will the 98+ ecu control the old non-VVTI blocks? how much...

i too have questions about this, i know it is possible to do the swap, but cannot seem to find anyone that has actually done it. from what i know there may or may not need to be some ECU/TCU mods done in a ls400 for a 5spd conv, just depends on wether or not the ecu requires the signals from the...

well so i have decided after 5yrs of driving crappy cars to be able to keep the dream of building my MKIII supra, i am going a different direction... been looking to buy a LS400, but cannot decide what year, i know 90-93 is the desired engine for non-VVTI, but i really like the 98's body...

this may be old new but i thought it was worth sharing. http://innotech.www.50megs.com/LE1.html

Striker: i like to save money too, but go with the syncrowave if you have the money, i have used several of the small inverter type welders, and none of them came close to the old syncrowave 250 w/cooler. that we had at the shop, you will be happy with that welder for years! and as a company...

just let me know, i will be looking for it anyway, as i need to do some part-cleansing

i think i have one in storage? or maybe in the back of the garage, if i do its yours free, plus shipping from the US, is it worth it?

don't know about your area, but here in TX, if they do answer the phone, they don't know what they have, or don't speak english... i usually mkae a day of it and just go hit all of them, then make a list of any memorable cars so i can find them again.. bring your tools

AHA! i found it, this one looks like the lower section comes off, and it would be very short.. for hood clearance.. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Blower-Supercharger-FORD-Mustang_W0QQitemZ230225873369QQihZ013QQcategoryZ46098QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

truthfully as old as some of the m90's are i would not be suprised if you could find one at a pick and pull for cheap, i have even seen some LS-SC400 at some, motors are 99$ at most of these in my area, althought you may get injured trying to get it out yourself..

so then the th400 is completely controlled by gear speed?
