RWDboy Forums Junkie Location: South Australia Registered: July 2002	Re: GT4 modification and performance ... Thu, 19 May 2005 14:12 What's so bad about the Gen 1 blocks 'cooling'? The water galleys etc are exactly the same as the Gen 2. Did they ever use the Gen 2 air-to-air intercooler when rallying? Only when Toyota FORCED TTE to, and even then ST165s were being used occasionaly in 1992 (until the CS edition ST185 came out). And what makes you think the Gen 2 block is any different anyway? The 'rather weak bottom end' you refer to also wasn't changed for the Gen 2. In fact the bottom end is just as strong on both - the only weakness is that the #1 big end bearing can go very quickly when starved of oil (pick-up related issues, again not solved with the Gen 2), or if the oilways lose efficiency (blocked or otherwise). And the 'shitty flowing' head....well that's open to debate as well, sure the head doesn't flow that amazingly - and they certainly hunt down low, but the intake manifold is more to blame for any issues related to power up top. As for running the CT66 and killing the block, i can't comment on that because I'm not clued in as to what spec the CT66 is - are you inferring that the CT66 is inefficient at 12psi and heats up the intake charge?
