Medicine_Man Posted January 22, 2005 Report Posted January 22, 2005 Thats why you shoe horn them in :) Quote
Xany Posted January 22, 2005 Report Posted January 22, 2005 anything will fit into an engine bay....big or small.....theres 3 factors that contribute. 1. the size of the shoehorn 2. the size of the hammer 3. if a small hammer wont do it......use a bigger one.... (IE: 9 pound slegdy) simple. Quote
1G-GTE KE70 Posted January 22, 2005 Report Posted January 22, 2005 hahaha. I wouldn't call it shoehorning... but they must have gone through a lot of effort smashing the firewall in to fit my engine in. haha Quote
Super Jamie Posted January 22, 2005 Report Posted January 22, 2005 rubbish. the mechanic i used get my parts from used to own a 1g-gte ke70. his firewall was stock as a rock Quote
Super Jamie Posted January 22, 2005 Report Posted January 22, 2005 depends what you want i guess, a 2 litre 6 is arguably a better motor than a 2 litre 4. less reciprocating mass per cylinder and all that Quote
1G-GTE KE70 Posted January 23, 2005 Report Posted January 23, 2005 it may fit in perfectly if you move the radiator to the other side of the bonnet latchy thingo. Quote
