Â 3t will be very easy to just drop in. Â Hybrid may involve modding the accelerator cable (bnot 100% sure though) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isaac_TA22 Posted March 26, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2007 sweet as! thanks for that, I'm thinking the 3t will go better too plus it seems to be hard to find the parts for a 2t 3t build Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tas_ae71 Posted March 27, 2007 Report Share Posted March 27, 2007 (edited) 2t and 3t as the same series alot of parts should be the same/ interchangeable.. 2tg/3t has been done previous..

Isaac_TA22 Posted March 27, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2007 (edited) Let me know exactly what parts you are after...i may be able to help put you in contact with the right people Well baisicly i need a 3t block with pistons and crank, well pretty much everything but the head because i want to put the 2tg yamaha twin cam head on it, which i allso need to find. don't need a gear box because I'm pretty shure the one on the back of my 2t shud bolt up Edited March 27, 2007 by Isaac_TA22 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oh what a nissan feeling! Posted March 28, 2007 Report Share Posted March 28, 2007 The head wont fit on the 3tc bottom end, the valves will hit the pistons, which have an enormous mountain situated on them. The 2t pistons have a much smaller bump on them. If i remember correctly there is no point in putting a 3tc in instead of a 2tc because the factory power figures are almost the same. Just put the twin cam 1600 together, they are a much better head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just put the twin cam 1600 together, they are a much better head. yeah i know there fairly the same power figures, but i realy just want a 3t for its crank, I'm going to boar it out to around 2 liters and put some forged pistons in it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oh what a nissan feeling! Posted March 28, 2007 Report Share Posted March 28, 2007 forged pistons are not neccesary unless its turbo. Boring it out is old school, and stupid. Besides the difference in capacity would not even get close to two liters. You really need to do some research, especially towards your compression ratio, because neither 2t or 3t pistons would be suitable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigger Is Better Posted March 28, 2007 Report Share Posted March 28, 2007 If you use the 2tg head on a 3t block you can bore it out to around 1972 cc from memory, you just need valve reliefs machined in the pistons, get some forgies and up the comp around 10.5 to 1 with a set of carbies and cams and you will have a quick little engine. Do a search on the net for 2tg 3t hybrid and you will find your info. Just have to be patient. Â Josh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
towe001 Posted March 28, 2007 Report Share Posted March 28, 2007 Or if your feeling a little perky you could bore it out 84.5mm (think thats right, its the same size slugs as the 18R) into the coolent passages and drop in sleeves. Something like over 2litres. Plus use the 4y crank = 2250cc  Plus side is asking people to figure out the capacity of the motor.   Negative side is that the motor, depending on treatment, will be short lived. Short rods on a long stroke crank isn't all that good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doityourself Posted March 29, 2007 Report Share Posted March 29, 2007 Actually you can put a 2T-G head on a 3T-C. You need to retard the exhaust cam to the last dowel hole on the camshaft, it still works well. PM Batesy TE70 about the details, as he did it to one of his motors.

Retrospekt Posted March 30, 2007 Report Share Posted March 30, 2007 or you can put 3t internals into a 2t block, need to flip some bearings and have grooves cut into the block to fit the crank. styler has the full details afaik, he posted them somewhere before Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
