Our 1UZ-FE engine is throwing all kinds of curve balls at us, and now that it is all together it doesn't actually fit into the engine bay!

If I remember correctly Al from the skid factory ran into a similar issue and used a Subaru booster and master cylinder to solve it. The booster pushed the master cylinder out farther from the firewall but was several inches smaller in diameter.

Hi Scotty, I put a twin turbo 1UZ in my VK about 16 years ago and modified my rocker cover to clear the booster. Slightly cut it down and welded on some alloy plate to make it step down for the clearance I needed. Just another option for you. Cheers.

Just thinking scotty mate the rocker cover on the brake booster side, if internally you have enough room, then cut away enough space for the rocker cover to move around while the engine is running and clear the brake booster as well, easier than replacing the brake booster i would think IMO. 👌👌👍👍🚗🚗😀😀😎😎

Also, for exhaust manifolds, do a pair of logs and run them to the front of the engine so you can fit a single G30-770 turbo for RIDICULOUS boost response and big-block torque output throughout the entire rev range...

@STREETMACHINETV Жыл бұрын

That would be way too small, it'll choke the shit out of it, sure it'll have great response but the back pressure in the exhaust housing will be huge and a 4-litre turbo with that boost response will not make for a good streeter.
