Bananaman Regular Location: Strathfield / Sydney Registered: July 2003	ca18det into ke20 Thu, 26 May 2005 14:06 Gday fellas, This is a long way off, many things to worry about first - but a mate of mine has access to front cuts quite cheaply, which got me thinking. I have a 74 ke20, which i believe has a quoted tare weight of 720kg, meaning that by rta rules the max capacity turbo engine you can have is 1800cc's. Before you all say 4agze - i don't feel that is a cost effective item. Aside from the fact that these engines and parts are sought after by the initial D dorifto boys (pushing the price up) - its inevitable that i'd want to convert it to turbo, and that just isn't cost effective. So, it got me thinking about running a ca18det. Sr20's have been done before (would be nice, but illegal). How one goes about mounting it (and who could make mounts?) i'm at a complete loss to ponder. There's a few other things i was wondering though. -Gearbox - what would i use? Would the stock box from a silvia/180sx fit in my tunnel / shifter be remotely close? (Tunnel already been hacked up...) -Custom tailshaft i assume would sort any rear end problems, worry about driveline strength later -Fuel delivery. Current tank useable with external pump? -Would ta22 celica brakes be enough to get it engineered? They currently are not power assisted. -Weight. How much heavier is a ca18det than a 2tg? Thats it for now i think. Don't give me anything about blasphemy - my car is already a bit of a mongrel, and it has a rollcage etc. So i really couldn't give a turd. Thanks, Bardin.
