3TC Turbo<\/h2>\r\n

Direct bolt-in. The main difference is the crankshaft stroke. The bore diameter is the same as a 2TC. It is possible to put a 3T crank into a 2TC, but you have to grind a few areas of the block to prevent the rod bolts from hitting, so it's usually easier to just use the 3T block. It is common to use a 3T crank (or block) in a 2TG. 3TC turbo setups are the most popular for high horse power and drag applications. Swapping a plain 3TC block by itself does not gain you much power, but the 3T block in combination with a good selection of other mods can result in substantial power increases from a stock 2TC. Parts are easily available and probably the easiest high power mods you can make. Here's some good examples:

2TG<\/h2>\r\n

Direct bolt-in. 'G' stands for twin cam. The stock 2TG came with Mikuni Solex sidedraft carbs. You can only get these motors from Japan import places. These are old 1970s motors, so are most likely coroded and will require a complete rebuild and new carbs. Other differences from a 2TC: The upper timing chain has an oil pressurized tensioner you have to know how to adjust. And the water neck and heater water hose connections are in different locations, so you have to get creative using different hoses. I'd say the only real pain compared to a 2TC is adjusting the valve clearances.

3TGTE<\/h2>\r\n

3TGTE - For info on this, check out my SR5 project<\/a>. Sold in Japan only in Celicas around 1983. Not really a direct bolt-in. Lot's of mods required. Originally came with a W55 transmission. The 3T flywheel is drilled for an 83 Celica\/Supra clutch. You can use a T5 tranny but you will need to use the stock 2T flywheel and the tranny might not handle the power. If you use the W55 tranny, you need to cut the shifter hole back (shifter is about 2 or 3' farther back than the T5). You also will need a custom driveshaft and tranny crossmember. This is fuel injected so you will need a high pressure fuel pump, larger diameter fuel lines, pressure regulator, return line, ignition ECU computer, etc. Not an easy swap unless you know what you are doing.

4AG<\/h2>\r\n

This is the motor used in mid 80s Corolla (AE86) and MR2. There are even more performance parts still available\r\nfor this. Check out this site for info on 4AG engine swaps<\/a>.

3SGE<\/h2>\r\n

Another popular swap. I don't have any info on this other than a few photos.

1UZ-FE<\/h2> \r\n

If you are even more aggressive, you can attempt an aluminum V8 installation.

NON-TOYOTA ENGINE CHOICES<\/h2>\r\n

Going non-Toyota powerplant is frowned upon by some, but I say what ever works best for you.<\/P>\r\n

Mazda Rotary<\/h2>\r\n

A common choice due to availability of performance parts and how light it weighs.
