I hope these work
These should show how the swap doesn't fit under the hood.

Thats AWESOME!! Nice work on that!! I bet it really hauls with the weber on there. I'd say you probably have the most powerful engine here of anyone.

Are you going to put some sort of hood scoop over the carb to keep it out of the elements?

Thanks for sharing the pics!

I haven't found anything yet that I want to bolt to the hood. I can't believe what people charge for a piece of ABS plastic. I will need to do something soon.
thanks for the compliments it was a tone of work and fiddling around.
There are still some qwerks to work out. But it is getting there.

Which model Weber is that? I *think* it's a DFEV, but I'm not sure.
From the looks of things, it's on backwards. The float bowl should point towards the front of the car...

But still, it's a damn fine conversion. I've heard of people putting in 4A series engines, but that's the first time I've seen a 5A.

How does the transmission hold up with all the extra power?

Awesome! :D
That's a long radiator hose. :)
How did you find room for the exhaust downpipe? I can't really tell where it goes.

FH Bible, when this car is on the dyno, how much of a horsepower increase do you get with the Toyota 5AF Performance engine in your Tercel 4WD Wagon? Did you use the stock 4WD 6-Speed Transmission? Did you modify it, at all, if so? I like it a lot. Make sure you put a turbocharger on it and a nice exhaust system with a nice throttle tone to it. I love it. How many ponies does this engine swap ring up? Thank you. :rolleyes: B) :)

Terceldude,

I am all for free expression, but there is a limit, and that's when it infringes on the rights and sensibilities of others. I've resisted saying anything about the posts on drugs and various other thopics that have been placed in this forum. I'm not going to remain silent any longer. This is not the place for things such as your avatar....please have respect for the other members here, both young and older, and replace it with something that would be appropriate for people of all ages to view. It's not artistic nor does it have any social value at all....it's just plain vulgar. This is not meant to offend you or anyone else...I'm just asking that you have appropriate respect for everyone else on this board.

Sincerely,
MootsMan

terceldude -
Your maturity is also being revealed...
You were self-described as a "young adult"... <_<

P.S. Your new avatar is more than a bit tacky...

Mootsman:

Couldn't have said it better myself; thanks for speaking up and taking care of that.

Terceldude:

Thanks for respectfully removing your avatar; please be more tasteful in the future.

We want to keep this place appropriate for folks of all ages and backgrounds.

Cheers,
Nick

Fine. I'm removing my avatar. I'm very polite. You guys are misconceptionists, saying I'm not as polite as others. Now, FH Bible, can you please answer my questions? I'm desperate for an answer. I posted the avatar because I'm very liberal and not conservative. It has nothing to do with politeness, just your political background. What up gangstas? Pimp yo Tercel 4WD's!! Lets all take a day trip to England and relax with nice English tea and go to Trafalgar Square and relax there. LOL :lol: B)

I removed my avatar and put one of Big Ben to change the Laura Bailey one. Are you happy now? Please be consistent and tell takza to politely remove his as well, because it shows a little English boy sticking up the middle finger, which means the f-word. Also, please tell xaserII, in a polite way, to remove his because it shows a woman shaking her body in a suggestive way, suggesting sex. Please don't be hypocrites and be consistent and tell them, as well. Thank you. :rolleyes:

FH Bible, can you please answer my engine and transmission questions now? They are about your Toyota 5AF swap in your Tercel 4wd and whether it still uses the stock 4WD 6-Speed Transmission, or not. :unsure: B) :rolleyes: :D

MootsMan, Archinstl, iCE and GTSSportCoupe, that is your opinion about what you think of my past avatar. I'm very mature and polite. I'm sorry for putting that avatar there. You guys should try to be more accepting. You know, if one person puts a bad avatar on and two other people have one as well, you should tell those two other people, instead of just the one person. I just thought it was a very sexy looking avatar. It was of Laura Bailey, A Voluptuous XL Girls magazine porn star from London, England. I'm sorry for putting it there, though. Please don't make harsh opinions or comments on my maturity level or politeness level. Thank you.
