I knew it! Bet you're backing it up with a celica 5 speed and dyna diff, oh and torsion bar front end, and leaf springs in the rear.

Yeah, you'd have nearly as much lift as stroke. Forget bent valves, she'd probably push the crank out through the sump.

127 pages of this thread aren't even about the car haha
Just kidding Mitch! Very keen to see where you go with this now, its a nice car! Don't worry about all the issues, its almost a 20yr old car so things are going to need to be replaced, especially if you drive it hard No words for the motor though, that just sucks Watching with interest, keep at it!

Stop complementing your own car Mitch! Clearly its going to ride better than a leaf spring wagon so dont think its so brilliant!

I was waiting for this, but as you can see the road goes around further if you look above the roof of my car and Google maps but it's not up to date still shows it as a gravel driveway not the hot mix |
