Hi all,
Can someone tell me if there are any engines out there that will drop into the mount for a toyota 4k?
My beach buggie has a 4k in it and the head has cracked, hehe, its spent to long at 7000 rpm (or wateva it redlines at when the thottle is wide open, i don't have a tacho on it)
Thanks.

both the 5k and the 7k have the same mounts as the 4? hmm, ok, that gives me a bit more freedom (basically first decant motor i come across that fits ill buy). Are the 5k and 7k injected or carb?

Whats a 2tg? carbed or injected? reason is because the engine i use will get a VERY hard life, and i think carbed will handle it better. I'm very surpirsed at how long the 4k lasted accutly.
Thank you.
