Re: Out of the turbo honda game. '77 Celica. 1UZ-FE. Holset H1E GANGSTA!
I got my engine.
I want to thank 88dx for helping me pick it up from Tacoma. I really appreciate it.
Look at all the crap that I pulled off it. Going in the garbage.
Moldy rat turds
The manifolds look pretty decent.
Flipped. I will have to remote mount the oil filter and get creative with the alternator

Cleaned intake mani and valve covers. My alu polish was all dried up. :?
Oddball throttle body. Secondary TB, TPS and traction control. I'm probably not going to use it. I would like something clearner, maybe rustang or Q45 tb.
FMIC arrived. It's huge!

Wow.
That's about as ignorant as SBF, where most block failure is attributable to the intake manifold being bolted on *incorrectly* from the factory. These 1UZ's don't have a reputation for splitting down the middle of the lifter galley when pushed to their limit, do they?

"A Toyota/Lexus 1UZ-FE 4L (244 cubes) 4 valve quad-cam engine. It has a forged crank, six bolt mains, reinforced lifter galley, and all aluminum construction. Pound for pound it was the most advanced V8 until it's successor--the 3UZ-FE--was introduced.
What would a discussion of the 1UZ-FE be without mentioning the 6-bolt main, steel cap, deep crank recess, bottom end. This contributes to a virtually indestructable assembly. The stock bottom end has been known to make almost 1000 bhp on mostly stock parts. With a completely stock assembly and compression ratio (10:1), the 1UZ has produced 600 bhp with 15 bs of boost."
Rods and crank are forged.
