It looks like it would fit in the engine bay with a custom exhaust but i know it doesnt. But why? |

I think the top part would bolt on, but the bottem would have to be modified/remade.

The top half will fit fine to the block. The bottom of that will have to be cut or modded in a way so that it will bolt up to our exhaust.

i've explained this countlessly number of times. Search for it. But anyways, lets say this, if you put a header on your celi 5sfe that was made for the mr2, the end of the header (name please, forgot i did), would literally be pointing at the ground. The Mr2 engine is not at an angle, our engine is. The Mr2 is flat in the engine bay, where our engine has a good 60 degree twist on it.

[right][snapback]222044[/snapback][/right] For 90 bucks, it's not that much of a loss if it doesn't work. Also, you can probably have the second part made pretty cheaply. |
