First Corolla
Posted: Thu Feb 20, 2014 2:00 pm
little back ground.
i have always been into nissans, have had many of them. this is the first corolla that i have owned and worked on. It is a 86 GTS. absolutely love it. bought the car from a man down in florida drove it back with no issues, minus the knowledge from the seller about the transmission going out. replaced that after about to months and didnt have any issues out of it. the car was my dd on most days. roughly 3-4 months late im making another trip down to florida. and BOOM!!!! threw a rod, no big deal. weighed my options decided on going with a 20v BT swap. as of now i have repalced HG, ARP head studs and just cleaned up a few things internally.
now the issue i am having is not being able to find a write up for the t3 colant reroute and the dizzy relocation. my questions with the dizzy is do most people just break down the dizzy to bare minimum in the stock location to have proper clearance. or is there some kind of block off plate. and if there is a block off plate is there any kind of brace or mount for the cam being that the cam does connect to the dizzy and it looks very dangerous to be free floating with out a dizzy there.
for the t3 colant reroute. i just need to gather some info on plumbing it. any information would be great.
Thanks in advance guys.
