"Fitting a Toyota 1JZ A340 transmission onto 1UZ." That's the search term I wish would have yielded some results when I was in the process of building my combination. I had a race car with a 1JZ (actually a 1.5JZ) and racing automatic and torque converter when I decided to "add two...

I just spoke with Jeff Dellow at Dellow Automotive in Australia and the news was good: the detached Australian and "machined-off bell" USA powerglide both bolt up to the Dellow 1UZ-to-powerglide bell housing. Their bell housing uses the pump bolts to mount the glide. Now, my next decision...

I found this ITB set-up on e-Bay (below) . . . and I'm sure all of you have seen them. Anybody out there actually use them? Could you build a box on these and use it in a turbo/supercharged configuration? Are the runners sufficiently large (and thick) for ported heads? Flow numbers? Dr. Jeff...

I am building a Vortec-supercharged 1UZ for my drag race car (see photo) and am nearing completion. I have a question for this experienced group: I have a Tial 50mm blow-off valve (see photo) that has a 14 pound spring in it (intended for a turbo). My understanding of supercharged engines is...

I thought some members would like to see my supercharged 1UZ drag truck project as it unfolds in Bangkok. Feel free to offer comments, corrections, and good ideas. I would appreciate it. I have a web page devoted to my race projects, including the supercharged 1UZ into my 1990 Mazda Familia...

I am contemplating using the Ross forged piston on the (early) standard 1UZ con rod in a low boost (10 psi) Vortech V9 supercharged configuration but am concerned that these pistons weigh more than the standard 1UZ piston. My concern is that the additional weight will cause additional stress on...
