What a cry baby. Since when is an e303 a radical cam ? I don’t get what comparing your solid roller to one is unless he is trying to down play your whole build . Oh well it’s obvious he’s hung up in the Stone Age big time instead of being as open to learning as he is teachingIt was a " what happened to everybody" thread..I was just curious to see where he landed, given that he had packed all of his stuff, and flew out the door.
And add to that...this:
Now I know I make a lot of bull sht claims, but when did I ever say that I “popped insane wheelies on a 315 street tire?”
22Rs have a cult following for a reason, damned good engines.The last roytota engine that I had any love for was the 22R and 22RE. Waaaaaaaaaaaay back in the day when I was a young Airman...
--[flashback noises]: "Bee-duh-Doo Bee-duh-Doo Bee-duh-Doo"--

I had a Celica lift-back that I had put a dual Mikuni carb setup on. It came from a little known company called, "LC Engineering".
They got me. I sent them even moar moniesLemme tell ya: In 1990 it was a [big] deal to get 315ish FWHP out of something like a Celica. It was more than sufficient to provide holy hell to any existing (at the time) 5-oh except those very rare cases with superchargers installed or equivalent mods.
Those rare instances where you just sat there watching that badass MF Mustang just wax ur chit knowing what you've got in your 22R and also knowing that no way was it ever going to pull [that] hard.evar
I [will] have one. Oh yessss... Someday, I will have one.
Fast forward another couple years until I got my 86 and dumped cash into it until... to be cont'
The same holds true for the top Classes in the NHRA...can anybody even tell what brand those funny "cars" are supposed to be? PRO STOCK ( again, barely recognizable) Stopped using engines that the Big 3 make years ago..
Why the hell would I lose one minutes worth of sleep fretting over instead of saying I have this Maverick engine brought back from the dead, and held together with luck, and JB weld, or a 2jz out of a Lexus?
That is a purely rhetorical question...I wont.
Cmon dude!You certainly have lost your fear of the camera. Does this mean you have turned in your box head id card?
That's where it'll stay..Saw this on Facebook
No no no...that’s crazy talk.To use your 4r70 in my mind the way that would work is this . You get the adapter plate and flexplate to run a th400 . You get a JW bell to adapt a aod/4r70 to a Chevy . Converter for ford to Chevy and I can’t see why it wouldn’t bolt up to 2j just like a th400 does
Or you could try like you said and make a plate to adapt the a340 bell but then what happens as far as getting the converter to work as far as spacing the snout .
The fool proof way to me would be like I said all the adapters to mate a 400 to the 2j and then all the stuff to mate the ford to a Chevy motor being the adapter is a Chevy pattern and you’d be good to go
You will need more boost......No no no...that’s crazy talk.
I’m saying I make:
1. A 1/2” plate bolted to the back of the 2j with the SBF bell pattern drilled and tapped, with the appropriate dowel pins pressed into the plate for both patterns to locate off of.
2. A spacer bolted onto the crank with a machined shoulder to locate it properly on the nose going into the 2 j crank, and the appropriate pilot hole drilled into the tail for the converter snout to ride in.
Depending on the bolt pattern of my flex plate versus the pattern of the 2j crank, holes may have to be welded shut and red re-drilled to make it fit. That will put the current 4r70 flexplate where it’s sposed to be in relation to the converter, and allow me to bolt up my current starter.
Easy, Peasy, the monster’s going japanesey
Who else here can tell me if that has some sort of hidden flaw that I’m not seeing?
Should work fine I’d thinkNo no no...that’s crazy talk.
