Okay finally got an imgur workaround. In case anyone didn't notice that's a shiny new non-oily engine in there :D

More than half of what is shown in this picture is new. The incomplete list of parts for this rebuild includes:



22RE Performance Stage 1 rebuilt engine with dual-row timing chain

Radiator
Heater hose and clamp kit
Radiator hose kit
Distributor hold-down bolt (Yes, it's a special bolt)
Plug wire clips
Air filter housing to carburetor seal
PCV hose
PCV vent hose
12' Vacuum line (Not enough, there will be more coming soon)
Air filter
Dipstick
Air filter housing wing nut
Spark plugs
Lower radiator fan shroud
Transmission brace to block bolts
Transmission brace to transmission bolts
Bell housing bolt set (Yes, three seperate bolt sets)
EGR valve
Flywheel
Clutch



Everything  (where available) is OEM Toyota except for the clutch disk which is SECO.  I just have to finish hooking up the Giant Vacuum Line Spaghetti Monster, get the clutch hydraulic system overhauled now and some Toyota Red in there and I will be ready to test the new engine. Yes, it's been an expensive project :gap:

That's the plan. As far as I'm concerned this is a 2021 Toyota Pickup at this point. Between the new engine and attached paraphanalia, the HD W56 from Marlin Crawler and the soon-to-be freshly rebuilt transfer case (If you're listening Trevor, I'm still waiting for those 4.7:1 gears to ship :gap:) there is almost nothing left of the original 1985 multi-owner basket case. I've also been going slowly and carefully with great perfectionism, the Toyota way  :thumbs:

As far as my insurance company and county vehicle taxes are concerned it's a 1985 Toyota pickup. Fine by me.

Didn't know that. In any case I'm sure Marlin will get them in eventually. They're just probably coming from the port to their warehouse at a nice, slow crawl. In the meantime it's being nasty and snowy so rebuilding a transfer case is on the bottom of my priority list

It runs!

It actually runs really well. It will idle down as low as I can turn it, nice and smooth. The timing doesn't jump around the way it did with the old engine. I flushed all the coolant out of the heater core and filled and bled the coolant system with Toyota Red. It was easy except for the part where I divided by 2 to convert quarts to gallons and tried to figure out why I couldn't fit enough coolant into the engine :hammerhead:

Took it out on the highway today. I can't decide If I'm hearing some pinging or just being paranoid, but a wideband AFM will answer that question with facts and data. Stay tuned...

If it were my engine I would want to know if it's pinging right away.

I'm still trying to find a good one, or failing that one that is at least not terrible. Right now I'm leaning towards this one:

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Innovate-3918-MTX-L-PLUS-Wideband-O2-AFR-Air-Fuel-Ratio-Gauge-Kit-Bosch-LSU4-9/303622879814?epid=23009900035&hash=item46b1557a46:g:Td8AAOSwsXFZJTf0

I'm using a company vehicle these days so my truck could sit around for another month with no harm done.

It's not your engine, if it was, it would be 6 years later and still not running.

An A/F Ratio gauge will NOT detect pinging or pre-ignition.  It reads exhaust gasses POST-combustion.  :thumbs:
