The more pictures of this I see the more I think about spending some of my school financial aid and buying a master rebuild kit from EB! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> .....but I guess it will have to wait a bit longer.

Looks great! now you can put it in my 89 supra...... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/notooth.gif" alt="" />

Hope the oil filter doesnt line up with anything underneath.
It's a mess to get it out in the supra.

I was expecting some kind of fancy header, instead of the standard manifold. I am not unhappy, just surprised. I really would like to see how this fits into the same space a 22re fits.

How much would a guy expect to pay to do something like this, assuming the block is used. Looks like a really nice setup. Thanks for taking pictures. Have you done this before?

I'm expecting 350-400 hp with this set up . Stock manifold is excellent . custom would net more , but i'm NOT sure I need more ????

I'm gonna "cheat" ... I'm doing firewall and tranny tunnel mods to get it where i want it smile

Yes , I have been "in the business" for 27 years .. I've done more then I can count > off hand .

cost wise , I have about 4G's into it + my time ( little more then a 100 hours so far)

The oilfilter should fit just fine. And it's easy to replace.
Atleast it is on mine.
My engine fits without firewall mods. Except for a BFH that is.

Nice job. Why did you go for the 7M-GTE plus rebuild and not a 2JZ-GTE?

I opt for the 7M-GTE , because it came with the car smile

The little (as I like to call it) "HOTROD" its going into , will also have the supra suspension .. front and rear .

I picked up the car fairly reasonably ... which I couldnt say for a 2JZ supra .
