4a-f Engine, K50 Gearbox

[Trufauru]

Sorry for my mistakes on the last post... Here it's corrected!

 

Hi everybody, I'm Sebastian from San Jose - Uruguay, and I'm just about to buy my first car, a ke70.

I been reading the forums all over but i can't find the answer to my question, the corolla that I'm buying,

has the 4K engine resting in the back completly dismanteled. I can find for free a 4A-F engine but no T50 gearbox

so I was wondering if the 4A could be mounted easily with the K50 gearbox.

 

I just found this on wikipedia, but i don't know if its correct, here it goes:

K50

 

Ratios:

First Gear: 3.789:1

Second Gear: 2.220:1

Third Gear: 1.435:1

Fourth Gear: 1.00:1

Fifth Gear: 0.865:1

 

Applications:

- All 5-speed Starlets and Corollas with K-series engines,

- 1986 Corolla with 3A-U and 4A-U engines

 

 

My thinking is, if the K50 came with the 3A-U and the 4A-U , its very posible to fit also the 4A-F, or there is a big difference between these

 

Sorry for the bad English, i wait for your answer

K50 bolts up to K series engines.

 

You need a T50 for an A series engine.

Hi Sebastian.

 

The K50 gearbox that this article refers to is found in the AE70 and AE85 corolla. It came behind an A series engine and uses a cable clutch. It looks very much the same as the KE70 K50 but has bellhousing for the A series engine.
