Manny,

Nice job getting that tank outta there. What did you coat it with before the black layer?

Thanks again for the latch, should work out great!

That is odd. Wonder if those are somehow not stock cams.

jesse, i used rubberized undercoating, then painted it black (i dont like the brown look, even if you cant see it! lol)

yea, idk art...they have toyota pt# stamps on them...odd.

FPR line stuff will arrive today, and the rest of the motor parts should arrive tommorow, pics then!

imma go out to the garage in a bit and start installing jims AFPR, and making the lines up for it.
if the toyota parts arrive, ill install the rear main, and install the tranny too.
jim also asked me to do a battery relocation to the trunk, so i'll order a battery tray this weekend and start preping for that as well.

kinda bummed, the parts didnt arrive from lithia today like i thought they would.

Thats what you get for shopping at lithia! lol j/k

Are they some how 3sge cams? IIRC i had the same issues with a 1st gen 3sge head not having the notch and divot.

crap, do you have the gen3 parts in stock art? i definetly will keep you in mind, im sure i'll have to order somthing sooner or later..lol

will, i dont know. jim just gave me the motorset to install.
i dont know the history of it at all.

manny, can u access the fuel pump by removing the back seat like you can on the 6th gen, or is it just better to drop the tank? on both the 5th and 6th gen? jw still havent done mine yet

no.
since its an alltrac, the gas tank isnt under the back seat, its where the spare goes, near the bumper.

ohho ok that makes sense

built a bracket for th AFPR, and started mocking it all up, and installed the fuel pump and reinstalled the tank.

the bracket for the AFPR from aeromotive





some of the AFPR install parts



test fit..needed to order a couple diffrent fittings, at least summit has a great return policy!







and the installed fuel pump

Looking great Manny, I'll have to come see this again soon. Which battery tray did you go with? the kind we were talking about?

thanks J, your welcome at th garage anytime.

yup, im working on somthing special for this one, im hoping it works out.

Manny, great work as usual! I love the way the AFPR is coming out. Nothing sets off a build like some new SS lines

last night, i installed the rear main, valve cover, and installed the tranny.

for some reason, once the tranny is on (which by the way, installing a AWD tranny BLOWS.) the motor will no longer turn.
that means, today, i have to go pull that bitch back off, and figure out why.


jim, if i cant get this one to work, imma just use jeremeys tranny.

I have a tranny?

Thats amazing!







... lol - had to comment sry.

got the tranz off, input shaft spins freely, motor spins freely...looks like it may have been hitting the throw out fork...gotta reinstall it to find out.
grrrr

hang in there Manny, it will be worth it in the end when this beast is running

thats a tough hit, takin it off once was a bitch enough for me, cant imagine puttin it back on to take it back off lol, that blows. good luck my dude.
