18RG INTO ta22	Fri, 26 September 2003 01:00

Hi all I know a guy who is putting a 18rg into a 22 and he is running into some difficuility with the cross member and rear engine mounts on the box i know there are people out there who have done this conversion and i was just wondering if i could pick your brains for some clues. Thanks in Advance Jas [Report message to a moderator]

the mounts will have to be custom made as far as i know, unless he uses a RA2X crossmember (???) i have to ask though, why bother with an 18R in a TA22. wouldn't a 2T/3TG hybrid be a better, smaller and lighter option??? well, best of luck with the conversion. [Report message to a moderator]

Its a 18rg not a 18r and the problem is that he has already gone ahead and done most of the work so this is like shutting the gate after the horse has already bolted [Updated on: Fri, 26 September 2003 05:58] [Report message to a moderator]

18R or 18RG, either way it's the same block, and the same difficulties associated with bolting it into the TA22. hopefully someone else here knows about the compatibility of a RA2x crossmember into a TA22. people use TA23 crossmembers into RA23's when they throw away the boat anchors and use T-series engines, but i dont think that the RA2x crossmembers will go into the TA22 easily. otherwise it's custom all the way...

Use your standard 22 X member, (23/28 won't fit) use a corona sump and oil pick up, them custom fab some engine mount brackets, and gearbox x member to body mounts. regards Chuck. [Report message to a moderator]
