    header engine bay modification

    We have a crossover pipe that goes in the same place though. And how is the 90-95 transmission different from the other one space wise? Why wouldn't it fit? I've seen these on a 01 4runner

    header engine bay modification

    I finally found CARB legal headers that will fit the 3.4. I'm collecting parts to do the swap and want to put headers on it before the engine goes in the car. This says it fits 99-02 4runners with a little modification? Have any of you guys seen or done these? Header Kit - V6 Tacoma, Tundra &...

    That place looks pretty cool. Thats not too far, few hours which isn't unreasonable. Seems they only do DOA racing engines which I can't afford. At least thats what I took away from the website.

    Question about Tearing Clutch Pedal Pivot Mounting Plate

    Biggest problem with getting it welded is that it doesn't warp. Mine was torn right where the clutch rod goes through the firewall and then the studs didn't line up when it cooled down. Took a lot of effort to put it back. Good luck!

    Question about Tearing Clutch Pedal Pivot Mounting Plate

    oh, lastly the reason you probably think its welded is because those clutch studs that go through. make sure to get those in the engine bay.

    Question about Tearing Clutch Pedal Pivot Mounting Plate

    Yeah, depending on your year, There are nuts you have to undo inside the engine bay that hold the clutch cylinder on cause the studs go through the firewall and are attached to that bracket. (took me a while to figure that out.) They are pretty easy to get to though, then you have the 4 nuts on...

    Question about Tearing Clutch Pedal Pivot Mounting Plate

    Don't do it yet! I just took mine out this week to get it welded because it tore and I thought mine was stuck too but there are a few little hidden bolts. However if you can see weld seems... then good luck.
