Drinknsux,<br>Go to the site www.LCengineering.com, they are based in Laughlin and builds the best 20r/22r engines. Expensive stuff but you can get ideas and parts how to build your engine. They got everything you need for your type of racing.<br>WWW.toysport.com has good articles about toyota racing engines also. Athough, I would not let them touch my engine...they will be good for hard to find parts.

hay thanks your right they are pricey but great info.. thanks again.

Check the 6 cyl Toy engines as well. I don't personally know about them, but a buddy of mine suggests that they're strong at stock parameters alone. Like I said tho, I don't know anything about the Toy 6 cyl's, so please don't flame me for it if I'm all wrong -- just suggesting an option to consider and research. I think what my buddy suggested was something in the 80's and the modle was not Celica (not that it couldn't have been also used in Celicas tho). For some reason I want to say 1986. I need to check your posted pictures to see this machine. Also, your screen name is very cool, and I'm down with you on it.
