I am looking at an '84 cressida tommorow with a 4m in it. I was wondering what gear box it might have in it. were 4spd autos around then? Is the exhaust manifold on it different to a '74 M motor?

I'm pretty sure an 84 Cressida should have a 5M-E, not a 4M? In any case, 4M's usually have W40 (4-speed) or W50 (5-speed) manuals behind them. Not sure about autos.

84 didnt have 5mge. 5mge came out in the 86-88 cressidas (mx73). 82-85 had the 5me. trust me that 84 one WILL Have a 5ME.

the 4m i looked at today, had a curvy rocket cover, and it looked like the exhaust manifold came out of the motor just under the rocket cover.
On my M motor th exhaust is way under everything at the bottom of the motor. Will a 76 onwards M motor fit right in with the exhaust i allready have?

84 should be a MX62 / MX63? (MX63 IRS but i'm not sure if we got them here?).
My 81 MX62 is 5M-E and 4spd auto, 3spd plus overdrive (good luck finding a manual they made apparently 300 of them ever).
Cheers

it should providing the head is the same...for example a 5mge/7mge fit the same exh manifold.....however neither fit on a 5me head.

I believe the models changed around 84-85. Either way, they are the correct engines for the correct model designation from factory when released in Australia.
As for exhaust interchangeability, unlikely. The post 76 4M has a single outlet from the exhaust manifold whilst the pre 76 M engines all have twin outlets. The 5ME has a twin outlet manifold but the spacing and diameter is different to the pre 76 M engines so you'll need a new engine pipe if you go post 76 irrespective of which engine you choose.
