hey all,
our rally project is coming along, but we've run into a few
tough spots. one thing we've found is the really cool
vintage TRD manifold (with built-in overhead linkage) hits
the distributor cap. if it was in a place where we could
shave some off of the manifold, we would, but unfortunately
it's right on the barrel ... not where you want to have thin
spots. so, I'm searching for a decent manifold or a way to
modify the ignition system that would move the distributor
or remove it altogether. if anyone has experienced this, and
found a proper solution, I'd love to hear what you did.
we are also thinking of swapping-in the brakes from our 1982
corolla parts car. our chassis is a '72 KE20, and I'm
wondering if any of you know if '82 corolla brakes , front
and rear, will bolt on to our '72 corolla chassis?
one last question; we've got our motor almost mounted in the
car, but we had to remove the factory sway bar because the
3tc sump sits lower than the stock 3kc motor. does anyone
have a suggestion for how to mount the motor so we can use
the stock sway bar, or maybe where to find an aftermarket
sway bar that would work?
cheers,
Jordan
