This things awesome. if i blow up my B engine turboing it, i'll come for this.

Gotcha. How I've adjusted timing on VE/Rotary pumps in the past... Mainly Cummins. Set the engine to TDC, set a dial indicator on cylinder #1 plunger, rotate the engine back until the plunger stops moving, reset the gauge, and see how much movement plunger #1 moves up in the pump. From there...

I am looking to reduce timing from 14*-11*. I found this on the internet in one of the repair manuals. If the B engine comes at 14 degrees and has an advance of 6 or 7, reducing timing a few degrees should help with safer boost like @Busted Crank has experienced. That being said, I will be...

Thanks for the details here, this is gold for me... Burt please excuse my naiveness to these vehicles... Here in the USA, I have yet to know another person with a similar engine. The B engine may be commonplace elsewhere, but I don't believe any B engine was every sold factory in the states. I...

no worries at all. i'm just curious on years. i am assuming that toyota switched over to inline pumps in 94. for my rotary pump, I believe you have to fully rebuild the pump to remove the timing advance, and that's just not something I am willing to do solo. i am going to bring down pump timing...

@Busted Crank I’ve got a doozy here. What year is your motor? I definitely don’t have an automatic timer and I have a ‘93 motor.

@Eurasiaoverland https://www.unicornpowersystem.com.au/ProductView.aspx?ID=1426. this i the exhaust manifold I ended up using. quality seems decent. mount flange is around 10mm thick, so is the turbo flange, pipe is around 1/8" thick. welds seem acceptable. I did quite a bit of fab to make it...

Single CT26 Mamba designed for the 14bt is where I wound up. I ended up with a 11bt manifold as well and everything is bolting up. I would have never had space for compounds reasonably, in retrospect.

Kicking up an old thread. Has anyone hooked one of these auto meter tachs up in a 24v system that was downregulated to a 12v supply successfully? Thanks!

@Busted Crank you’re a hero! I’m gonna order some up tonight. Thank you so much. Your timing’s perfect, I’m just getting my turbo fit.

@Busted Crank that would be awesome. thanks!

@Busted Crank I am just getting back to this project after some time off. Solid axle swapping this van is a challenge in it's own right. Do you happen to have part numbers for the timing advance gear shims? I verified today that I do have that gear on my van. Thanks!

Brand new CCT Stage 1 CT12B turbo for the Toyota 1KZT-E platform. I was looking to retrofit this turbo to the Toyota B engine, but found a working exhaust manifold and turbo from a 11BT engine that bolts up. Currently, this turbo is $646 shipped from Australia(takes some time). Local pickup in...

Actually. I just found my engine manual. I have one just like that. I couldn’t find it on megazip. Thanks again for this beta. You likely just saved my crank.

Never mind! I found the timing starts and stops on my pump. It looks entirely different. For what I am working on. It’s on the side of the pump for me. I’m wondering if this pump will respond to a turbo the way the older style 3Bs do?
