  1. Nissan and Toyota L6's are heavy enough. 4.0's a have cast iron heads and I'm sure the block height is going to be taller. I have been in a 4.7 Cherokee and is was fast though, easy 14.?0. Just wouldn't put it in a light car.

  2. I'm almost 100% sure the 2JZ 550's are side feed.

     

    The 7M does sound like a better choice to me since I have a set of supra 550c injectors and also on top of that I have alot of left over parts from my mr2 turbo.

     

    I'm not 100%' date=' but I think the MKIV 550cc injectors are high impedence and the 7MGTE are low. You might have a problem there.[/quote']

  3. If you have neither I think the 7M is better if you over look the HG problem. Already a 3.0, 4 valve head, makes more power stock and modded, has decent stock injectors and intercooler, with a quick shim of the wastegate it will be fast enough for most.

     

    If you search under my posts or 7MGTE you should find what you're looking for. There are a few pics on my link.

  4. I think some people think they are going to gain alot of power with an extra 300cc's over an L28. The difference between an L24 and an L28 is greater and that's not saying much. A 3.1 alone won't put out 300hp. You could send your head to Rebello or another reputable head guy and get more HP with a stock L24-28 than a 3.1 with a stock head. Adding displacement is an easy way of increasing torque but without headwork you're not going to get much more out of it. HP is about air flow.

  5. The R154 came with 1JZ's and 7MGTE's. The shifter will be about 2" more forward than the Z shifter. I cut the R154 shifter off at the base and welded a 3/8" thick by 1" wide by 2" long peice of steel to the stub and then welded the top of the Z shifter to that, just 2" further back. The JZ's and 7M's use a different bellhousing but the trans is the same.

  6. Might need different conectors for the wires, stock bracket might not work, If it's barbed than the hose will work. Will work fine with stock FPR it just pumps the fuel. It's just a fuel pump, you need some shop to do that too?

     

     

    I am wondering if I should have his outfit put on the Bosch fuel pump I bought...is it plug and play' date=' or do I have to wait to have it put on along with a progressive fuel management unit (CarTec/Bell). The installers are good at the brawn end of putting this stuff in, but they make no claims to know how it works, so I don't want to drive it off their lot and have drivability issues before I can get it to a specialized "tuner" mechanic.

  7. The R154 will bolt up and the shifter will come up through the center if you dog leg it. Compared to everything else involved it was easy. I used the Z car top and R154 base. The G series will also bolt up but I don't know were that puts the shifter, it's also not as strong.

  8. A few degrees of timing isn't causing the back fire. If it's though the carb and the valve timing is on which it would be if it ran good before then it's lean, shouldn't do it at idle though. It may need a little more fuel at idle or throttle angle to rev higher. I would richen it up, if it doesn't help just turn it back to were it was. Also if you retard the timing at idle it will be retarded the same amount at at high rpm.

  9. I fit's a street car that has to pass emissions I wouldn't do it. Running 38* at idle is alot , 22* on a turbo car isn't as bad. If it was a N/A car I would just fix it. On mine I removed thje springs and wired the weights together. Someone else here has also done it but did another method. As for what RPM to set it at, it doesn't matter as it will hold it from idle to redline. If it's an N/A motor you'll want around 35-38* , if it's turbo 18-30* depending on boost, turbo, fuel ect. I ran 22*.

  10. Theres a few pics on the link below on how I did mine. When I originally did it I just pulled it off the back end (number 6) of the manifold for simplitcity. After moving the motor back 2" I no longer had room and ended up with what's in the pics, I also used pipe for the plumbing.
