I'm not an expert but I'll give you my crappy answer, I'm guessing they are all good. However thinking in a Hot Rod style, you'll want to get the whole wiring harness complete. This will get you up and running. The earlier engines would probably be better suited to hotting up if you plan to get...

I would get a few more quotes first. Are these guys doing the machining themselves or do they employ some engineering company to make them for them. I have yet to pull my engine to get a rod out but when I do I will get quotes from Newby engineering in Sydney Australia. I am scared of any...

Hi Dave, did you end up coating your group buy pistons? I am looking at getting this done soon and would be interested in your thoughts. Great work on the motor, will you shead some light on your custom rods? Are they a direct replacement? What are the chances of getting a group buy on your...

I bought a Dellow Automotive (Revesby N.S.W.) bell housing to match the Powerglide to a 1UZ. These are two differing options. One probably a lot cheaper than the other but could be considered more fidley. I went with the Dellow option and I am happy. It is pretty solid. I never had an original...

Getlemen please shake hands and make up.

send me a pic you want to use and i will format it and send it back to you. [email protected] I use photoshop so it can make it look pretty good even though the file size is tiny.

YAY!!!!! Zuffen owns some sort of crazy dune buggy thing! (Or so it seems from his Avatar) :) Nath

Interesting, I can see it - the little car pic next to my username "Nath" you can't see it? Perhaps you have avatar setting disabled. Is that possible? I don't know. I can see my little baby up there so I am happy.

Sure I understand, but as Lextreme originally posted hence I am showing my interest to know more on the product in question. Lextreme if you have any pics of the finished product or design that you would be willing to post that would be great. I am always interested in seeing any of your...

I very much want to look over your shoulder at this. I am a newby to engine girdles so would love to see the finished product or even just a CADketch to see what all the fuss is about! (P.S this is my first offical post with my funky new Avatar of my mocked up Drag car :)

Testing my Avatar.

Year sorry that's right, The 1UZ is the engine from the sc400. It's also out of a few others, You'll see there a a fair few of us that have the engine in a couple of other cars and 4x4's.

You should stick a 1uz on the back of the sand rail, you wouldn't need the front wheels then. I heard you can get gearbox adapter for the VW / 1UZ. I can't comment on the SC400 as I don't have one, I'm into the engine. Hello anyway. There is lots of info here so spend some time to read up and...

If it was an engine mount you'd hear it all the time. Go up a steepish hill and stop roll backwards alittle then power up and take of. As the is no force on the engine when rolling backward the tourqe is not trying to push into the engine mount but once you hit the gas the engine will try to...

I'll give you a call in the next couple of days, have had the flu for over a month now. I'm getting scared because My engine is looking to be quite a machine but my car which I am yet to build is very small only having a 90 inch wheel base. I have thought of extending this out and build more...

Nice work - It's really refreshing to hear that mods go on and it all works out.

I'm hoping to make 700hp at the wheels... The engine will be a racing engine only and will be running on a diet of C16 fuel which has an octane rating of 116 I believe... Also depenmding on fuel delivery, It may run on methanol whioch is a pain in the ass to use. The car will be super light...

Ok.... the verdict is back on my blower. It was stripped done by Newby engineering and found to be rather badly scared on the inside casing, to worsen thing the rotors were also very worn down. I'd have to bore the case and teflon strip the rotors which with the amount of tolerance I loose will...

Hi David, Do you have any updates as to your engine? Any photos to post? It would be great to see an all clean brand new engine. Mine is still unstripped and dirty as hell. My blower is in the shop getting worked on. I go and inspect it in two days. It's getting sand blasted and then a...

I am designing a custom fuel injection plate and due to my strict design constraints placed by myself, I feel the best and only solution is to use side feed injectors. I am designing the plate as an absolute "Looks" product but with out sacrificing the design. To use top feed injectors places...
