icon1.gif  conversion budget advice needed Sun, 09 June 2002 08:48 Go to next message
I've just put together a very brief conversion budget for an ae82 corolla. The objective is to build up a stock ae82 (not twin-cam) with a gze engine. I'm not worried about looks so I haven't included paint, wheels or interior mods. The car is to remain stock looking and sounding so no allowance for a big exhaust has been included either.

Can people with more experience with engine conversions have a look over the spreadsheet and tell me where the numbers need to be changed?

What have I left out??? (apart from a fair whack of time to do the job...)

Thanks for your help
