SO I didn't get a BMW and this is nothing close to a bmw, but it means (as soon as I fix it) I can put the 240 in the garage and do it up right. Welcom to 1979 ladies.

yeah after the s14 is done I'll throw whatever in the truck, drop it, tub it, put a big block init, turn it into a drag truck whatever, but 1st the 240. The only thing the truck is getting now is a new head, maybe with any luck it's just the head gasket.

There's nothing like a $100 truck. haha

yeah, I'm not sure of the extent of the crappyness of the truck, the only thing I know is the dash lights barely work and the gas gauge is broken. Other then that, I'm just waiting for it to break.

i think the car either has to be 25 or 30 years old or something. maybe i was told wrong, but that's wat i was told for them to be smog exempt.

you can pick up those motors for cheap, just get a rebuilt 22r for like 300 bucks and you're golden for another 300k+ miles,

yeah it's amazing how long these toyotas last. my cousin has a 93 previa with 400k! all he did was change his oil religiously.

the 22r is like 800-1200 for a rebuild. Not thats it's a real big deal, but the engine in that/my truck is the 20r and it's still around the same price for the engine. It's cheaper for me, to just buy a head if I need it. Thanks for the idea though.
