2.7 supercharged taco engine

[Paul_Elbisser]

Anyone have specs on this motor? ow about what trans can bolt to it? Can I hook a W sieries to it without adapters?

[Cracker]

Paul,
The 4cyl (2.7) Tacos use the W59 tranny, so I would be about 90% sure that, yes, a W56 would bolt up to the Taco bellhousing no problem.

No and Yes, the RZ engine has a different bolt pattern than the R engine, but since the Taco is using a W-series trans, anything behind the bellhousing can be W-xx. So you could place a W56 behind a 3RZ-FE 4cyl Taco as long as you run the W59 Taco bellhousing. :up:

displacement is where the power comes from.

also the original post was asking about the superchargered vertion.  TRD sells a bolt on blower for the Tacos that runs about $3,000 and it should be ran with a header, and big bore throttle body.

the motor is supposed to put out 200 hp with the blower.  i looked into it for my DD 2002 taco but just couldn't justify the price.  the factory warrenty would still be usable as well, because it is a "toyota modification." with "toyota" parts.
