hi everyone im looking to run a toyota for next season in my minisprint and was just seeing if the experts could help me out with a few things

motor needs to be 1340cc with 2 vavles per cylinder or 1240 with 4 vavles per cylinder

i was looking on macgors and someone said about using a 2A motor with a 4A head if anyone out there has a 2A could they please let me know or any other choices i have in engine departmant

ps will hopefully be running on methanol

Oohhh does it have to be a car motor? Can you not use a Kawasaki ZX-12R motor or something? That'd be mint

it has to be a car motor but no rotaries

Rotaries aren't motors anyway...
They are merely headaches sent from Hell to taunt the human race. :lol:

lol good call even tho i used to own one

yeah "2age" has been done with some sucsess before

good thing itll be on methanol, the 4ages ports would typically be a little large for a 1300!

possibly another choice could be an echo engine
but i think the 2age would be cheaper.

Well then you can't use the 4A head can you?
Unless there was a SOHC version of 4A release that I am not aware of...

im not sure thats why im asking you guys as i have no idea im only writing what was written on macgors speedway forums

by **fj40cruzapete** » Wed Mar 28, 2007 5:49 pm

I'm not to sure how much it'd weight but if you want a bullet proof engine that'll rev its tits off, get a 2A corolla engine and put a 4A 8valve head on it.

Its simply just a 2V per cylinder version of the 2A"GE" engines guys built for 1300 class starlet rally cars.

thats from the macgors website

2a motor with 3A head? 3A is only 2 valves per cyl though

by **fj40cruzapete** » Wed Mar 28, 2007 6:06 pm

must be that thenas i can go up to 1340cc with 2valves per cylinder

by **strap-on** » Wed Mar 28, 2007 6:23 pm

does it have to be sohc? or 2 valves per cylinder, cos a honda motor like mine is a sohc 16v, its 1301 cc i think and goes pretty good for what it is, if your allowed to run electronics it may be possible with a bit of mucking around to chuck a d15b sohc vtec head on it, but like warrick said with the 4a/2a conversion the ports may be too big.

I rate the d13b though, i think its supposed to be around 70 KW at the fly in factory form, and it has room for improvment eg higher compression, dual carbs ( this is what im looking into)

why has no one thought of the mighty 4k! :lol:

by **fj40cruzapete** » Wed Mar 28, 2007 7:38 pm

they have but im looking at trying something different

by **strx7** » Wed Mar 28, 2007 9:20 pm

AE82 corolla's had 4A carbed 8V engines. If you want a head we have one at work. so all you need now is a 2A engine

Notice something about who said about the 2AGE's on that forum? Twas I.
