Thanks thetoyman75... Your situation, engine wise, looks very similar to mine.
While I know that the 3S-GTE is a superior engine, I find it interesting that everyone bags the 3T-GTE...
I always thought it was a pretty strong, solid engine as far as the bottom end goes. All you had to do was put in a decent set of forged pistons & make sure you put it together properly & you have got a good solid engine that can handle a fair bit of boost.
What sort of boost is Jason's 3T-GTE running, & is the CT26 high flowed?
Do you know of anyone who played around with stroking the 3T-GTE via offset grinding the crank?... It does have a very short stroke (78mm)... which is good for getting it up in the revs, but I thought if you could get it to around the same as the bore, ie square, (say match it to oversized pistons 87mm x 87mm) the bigger capacity (2067.88cc) would certianly be worthwhile??
Also, are you planning to do anything to your engine in the head / cam / o-ring department??
Sorry for so many questions .... what are your thoughts on all this?
Cheers,
3T-GTE
