Hello guys.
Quick question.
How interchangable are 1c/2c/2ct/3c engines in terms of
-engine mounts
-gear box bolts mounts
-electrical system ?
basic question. if i wanted to convert 1c corolla to 2ct engine, would it just atraight bolt on ? or will i require some custom parts made up (eg. halfshafts, wiring modifications) ?
aswell I understand that the difference between 2c and 2ct is just manifold, turbo (with wastegate) and different (possibly only different adjustment) diesel pump ?
if i understand correctly these engines have mechanical injection ?
I seen come corollas 1c to 2c conversion, i just dont know what's involved.
Possibly anybody knows a good person/workshop to talk to about that ?
Thanks in advance,
Mops.
Background story:
Our family has this corolla wagoon 89' 1.8 diesel (1c engine). It's been in family for over a decade now, it still runs great but the engine is getting rather weak by now (approx 250000k's on original engine).. it's just worn.
I do realize that these cars are not worth much, but if I could get a replacment engine for it for a reasonable price I'd be keen to put it in.
I'm capable of doing the job myself, as long as the engine is direct bolt-in.
I'm not looking for massive power incerases...
