1976 toyota corolla project

[coheed]

What engine did it come with? 18R, 20R, 22r? edit: Im thinking its the 12r if so you can bolt a 22re right in the engine bay. They come out of Toyota Trucks from 85-95. Those can easily pass emmisions even with mods. And thier cheap, go look around the 4x4 world and were looking to get more power and engine swaps are pretty common. You can probably pick a used one up for about $500-800 depending on mileage. A rebuild kit is about the same. So you can have an engine with headers and intake, rebuilt and making 170-ish ft.-lbs of torque and 130-ish flywheel hp for about around $2000. It might not be your thing though cause it might take some fabrication to mount the intake, and i dont know if the stock transmission would work but it would be cool. Plus that engine pushes my 5000 lbs truck around pretty good so...
