Re: 1985 Chevy Nova pistons.

It can be done. Not the best idea. But it can be done. 1 block hit a cooling pocket while being bored to .50 over on a 3A-C. The 2nd went fine and is still running.

Re: 84 Tercel SR5 19mm oil plug, what gasket to use?

Buy it at Toyota when you buy the filter. The combo at retail should be less than $10. If you can't get one, send me a PM with your address and Ill toss it in the post. Don't use the crappy autodepot store ones. They always leak.

Re: The Definitive List of Ways to Lift a Tercel 4wd

Gotta step in. I used AW11 MR2 front inserts right off the bat with 89 4door Corolla All-trak springs and upper perches netting 10mm more travel in shock stroke and said 2.25" lift over stock. You have to drop the whole engine cross member to drop the front dif( I make the spacers for sale). An...

@AndyG I have no extra stut housings. Didn'realize those weren't factory style serviceable housings.
I can account for owning at least of those tercels you saw. Silver with red hood? was owned by one guy on here and driven by another forum member on loan since I bought it.

@Andy
Glad to see the Tercel I sold you, Roberto as I called him, is getting some love. It's now belonged to four different forum members. I can't remember who OhCanada bought it from, then me.
