Glen's budget rebuild

[alwayzbroken]

So I got a motor question for ya. What is necessary to put a 20r head on a 22R? Would a ported and polished 20R head with bigger valves make that big of a difference? I gotta put a motor in my 85. What do you think I should do for a little extra snort without spending too much. I have that 38mm weber, and a header that will go on.

1st thing you need is a 80-84  early block,  then  the 20R head,  intake  that 38 weber 

[alwayzbroken]

Good news. I guess I will save some money cuz all I have are 85,86, and 87 motors. I don't really want to tear the whole thing down either. Would larger valves and head work make a noticeable difference in my 22R head? It is gonna come off to replace the head gasket and timing chain while it is out anyway.

port the intake side of the head,removing   the swirl from the port  and get a cam from LCEngineering.com  i suggest something with a .440 inch lift

and a header, 

[alwayzbroken]

Thanks. I will check it out. Do these motors respond pretty well to cams?

[skid]

a few notes on the 20r heads, some don't have provision's for a fuel pump and they came with heavy steel rockers.   22r aluminum rockers are a cheap upgrade.

On cams for 22r's stay small.  Larger lift usually requires machining the valve guides down so the retainers don't smash the valve seals.

look at this,  its  close to what mine is  http://www.toyotacatalog.net/M1WebGear/ProductDetails.aspx?PartUniqueID=8161AAE3-03D6-4C33-AB3A-58B44B30DF84

[79coyotefrg]

and yes,  anything over a .460  lift  the  guides  have to be clearanced

[alwayzbroken]

Thanks. That looks like the one when the time comes 

[79coyotefrg]

now  i would have rather had a 1 inch lift,  but  since it was a GIFT  from my BESTEST BUDDY V-MAN      i came home today  to find a box from Summit Racing it was a SWEET  2 inch body lift

[79coyotefrg]

me tomorrow >

Keep it up!

Can't wait to see it with the hockey pucks!

Of course, at least they are not 3 feet tall like some I've had...haha.

[79coyotefrg]

3 foot  pucks 

[79coyotefrg]

 

[79coyotefrg]

iwasnt crazy   about the fiber/plastic  pucks,  so i was intent to  reinforce them a tad

i cut some tube i had that the pucks  just slid into snuggly

[Lady Di]

    Cool Glen!! and that was really nice of v-man to do that!!

GROPE HUG!!    

[79coyotefrg]

yes it was,   

[79coyotefrg]

 

[Gittinit]

Do ya think that the pucks were weak or was it just the idea of useing plastic between the body and frame that scared you? Now that ya got a little more height are ya planning on some bigger tires?



I want to remind ya to get those birfs, I'm depending on you. Do ya know if FJ40 birfs will work in a minnie truck front axle? The 60 or 80 axle I was supposed to get turned out to be from a fj40.

[V-Man]

  Your "exhaust" is showing.

Might want to watch the water getting on the plugs..etc
Maybe now raise the motor and transmission one inch for better ground clearence too.

not sure on the fj40

i have a note here on the desk,   i'll get them  for ya 

[79coyotefrg]

yes  some 33's  are in my future,  im too short  and  crippled up to  go higher

[V-Man]

  already  thinking on that 

Ya but you'll have to drill the pucks, correct the pinion angles, and move the rad agin.

[79coyotefrg]

Looking good by the way. I hope you are planning to move that front bumper up too.(better approach angle)

[79coyotefrg]

not till i can afford a couple of bottles for my cutting torch

[logan]

you could rent them from somewhere,it's only like $6 to rent the bottles and like 20 to fill them (that may be backwards) at least thats what it costs around here

IF  you have credit,  yes  they are cheap to rent

but  if you have had 3 major surgeries with no insurance  and the $70,000  in hospital bills  took what  credit  you had away  then  you cant rent them without  a $500  deposit 

but  i can buy a set  for  a couple hundred,  just  dont have the coin 

[logan]

uhhh....oh
