    to do a 200 tundra turbow properly get a flex a light electric fan kit. gives better cooling and a lot of room for your cooler lines. use a 3uz engine has 6 bolt mains just put in h beam rods. 3uz has huge injectors and vvti cams and variable intake manifolds makes 90 hp moor stock. se my threads on this truck. it took 6months and a lot of trial and error to get it perfect. here to help not criticize. 814-323-2476

    That 3UZ is looking sweet! when do you plan to start the swap? what transmission will you use?

    I don't think anyone is saying you're lying, we just want pictures!

    Sweet Jesus! What do you run for fuel to keep it from pre-igniting? Have you been on a dyno? What are the hp/torque numbers?

    I've seen A340s blow at 8psi. How the hell did it even make it to that kind of boost without cooking it much sooner? I doubt an LX trans will handle that kind of insane power much better, might want to look into a turbo 400 swap, I remember Lextreme pulled it off a couple years ago. Also how did that motor withstand that kind of boost at 15.1/1 afr? That seems extremely lean even if you're pulling timing, lower compression and running q15 methanol. What compression are you running? What standalone are you running the motor with?
