The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area The HiPo Shop In Retrospect, I should have kept an I-6 in it...

I owned a Supra once. A 1982 with the straight six engine. That engine was cammed a lot better than a stovebolt six. It made really tremendous midrange torque.

Yes, at risk of not being very original, I think a Supra's inline six would make an excellent engine swap into something like a 1/2 ton pick up. It would be lighter too. I'm sure those motors are common as dirt in many salvage yards. While you're at it, snag the 5 speed transmission from it too!

If you get lucky and get a twin turbo Supra engine...oh man, you'll be walking away from most people with V8 conversions.
When this same 350 that I put in my 3/4 ton used to be in my '68 Corvette, I played around with a twin-turbo Supra on the highway, and it out-pulled me. Strong motors. That's for sure.
