Now I really need opinions how to tidy up the engine. Please say somethin' guys. The idea is to get the two engine heads exposed by removing the intake manifold. It could be something like this!

Hi there,
ReplyDeleteThere's so much work to do but not that difficult and not that easy. What you need are:
Sapporo gear box
GSR clutch plate
EVO flywheel (7 holes)
Pressure plate (pajero)
The complication was on the machining flywheel and fabricating the spacer. That the hard part. I'll explain in brief some time next time. In the mean time go search colt and celeste at www.RetroSyndicate.com There're lot more modification explained there in Show Your Retro section.
In the mean time, if you wants to buy/sell retro part in Brunei, you can also use www.Kuasakuda.com It's mine actually. Send your car photos to me so I can preview from it.
See you next... I go to Brunei as well occassionally...
Great job with the conversion, I'm currently fitting the 6a12tt into a chevette.
ReplyDeleteCould you please send me some pictures of the engine mounts youve used for this conversion?

thankyou, Allen.
