22rePerformance Engine Install!

[blockade-runner85]

by the grace of GOD i won a raffle Jim at 22reperf was hosting for a stage 2 longblock on christmas day. Gonna be completely revamping any and all plans for the celica, and pulling the engine out to do a deep clean on the engine bay, paint touch up, and rebuilding of components, with Miata radiator as well.
If anyone has suggestions on what else to replace, im all ears!

Wow, that is a great prize!  When I got my timing chain kit from them back in the day, they called me to confirm which generation of 22RE I had in the car, and I was amazed that they knew more about my car sight unseen than I did.  (I'm also amazed that there's a shop who can make a living off of rebuilding 1 and only 1 engine that hasn't been made in almost 30 years...shows what a cult following can do for you.)

You'll have a chance to replace any and all of the coolant and heater hoses, rubber fuel lines, etc. with the engine out (spoken by someone who recently saw an, um, unplanned rapid coolant release), but one thing I really liked about the gen3 Celica was that a lot of that stuff isn't hard to get to anyway?  Still, it'll be even easier!

I also think his quality and attention to detail speaks more volume than any words he can say. I dont believe i had ever heard bad spoken of his work from what i'd seen. I plan to swap in a miata radiator to get some cooling overhead, and replace all hoses and stuff while the engine is out of the bay. Might even convert to electric fan setup to get that little bit of extra rotating mass removed.

Wow, i was hoping to win that engine for the cab. I need to replace the fuel lines on my rebuild. Mine is broke at thr hard line connection going toward the tank. I wohld linke to replace the line from the fuel rail to the fuel filter as well i need to know the correct sizes for the fittings at each end. I realy need to figure that out as i am almost realy to put the intakemanifold back on the engine
