On the left side of the block it will have 2T or 3T stamped on it!
2T is the 1600
3T is the 1800

13T is a van motor, 1800cc but very different tune spec to the car motors (cam etc).

Would a 2T-G go better than a 3T?I thought just work on the 13T.
anywayz the car is going good with tha 13T so i dont think a conversion is nessacery,unless its already bin converted maybe.dont noe im real confused bout this car

Can someone clarify if 1st gen celica's come stock with 13T's ??
anyway someone mentioned its a van motor so i think not....hence torque down low but dud top end (correct me im wrong)
Depending on how much $$$ u got for a conversion the cheapest conversion is a 2T-G.......thats the motor its actually meant to come with i think
But the fact is ....if the body is in good nick ....get it for sure cause these gems in good condition are rare as

yeah man thats why i wanna grab it the body is completely straight with only little spots of tiny minor rust.
I can confirm they do cum with 2T`s and not 13`s,but u can put 3T`s in them.
Wat i want to noe is wat the hell is a 13T,is it a same as a 3T or a bloody van engine that gonna give me hassles.any1??????

There's nothing inherently wrong with a 13T. Provided the engine is in reasonable condition it will be fine. It won't be a powerhouse or anything, but it will probably be at least as powerful as the original 2T. Make sure you get it checked out by a qualified professional first though.
PS your spelling and grammar are shocking. Remember this is a purely text-based medium, so if you want to communicate clearly with other people you really need to brush up on your written English skills!
