Finally Having seemingly crapped all over the 2TG I'd like to quantify everything a little. Firstly your car was designed to take a T series Block so there is a conveinience factor in leaving one in there. It also means things like Gearboxes and Tailshafts may be able to remain in there stock form. More importantly tho it comes down to what your trying to achieve. Lately I have seen too many people (not within Toymods) quoting rediculously high power figures as what they want from an engine. 150 Flywheel HP will haul arse quite nicely in something like your TE71 or an early Celica and it is not hard to acheive! The 2TG is a FUN engine to drive. It has a really useable power range and pretty good torque. (Great torque with the 3T Crank) I'll fess up a little hear. My new engine for the show car is (or was a 2TG) I picked it for all sorts of reasons. Firstly I wanted an engine that was suited for the car weight and period wise. Secondly I wanted to annoy all the 4AG owners with a performance 8 valve engine ! Thirdly I wanted to build something out side the norm. Fourth I wanted to annoy all the 4AG owners Fifth and by no means least I love the look of it ! All emotional reasons really. Mind you if I don't see something approaching 200 Horsepower at the wheels I'm gunna spew ! I have spent a lot of years with the 2TG now and the only other option I would have considered for what I wanted is the 3SGTE. And that seemed all to bloody hard. In hind sight tho....... Sorry for the long replies I hope that covers it [Updated on: Thu, 23 May 2002 13:54] [Report message to a moderator]
