The radiator can be custom ....not having a transmission cooler in the radiator since you are running a manual thus giving the system more capacity to cool only the engine.

Wonder if it'd be a good idear to encompass the PS cooler into radiator, assuming the physical size would allow?

Will we be seeing some FC Fab metal-magic?

 

[cruisermatt]

I (speaking for everyone) await (im)patiently.

 

[Delancy]

I await patiently.

Have been for years, myself.....

It'll be worth it!!

Posting these, in event the iPhone's decay renders unavailable later, as it has many others.

Thanks, Alberto!!

So...Elockers huh? 9.5" front or keeping the 80 setup?

 

[Delancy]

So...Elockers huh?

Nah....that'd be too contradictory to the simplistic, less ECU theme.

9.5" front or keeping the 80 setup?

9.5" front and rear.

80 width (at this point) with OE 80 inners, outers and rears, in front and rear Ruff Stuff housings with Hellfire Knuckles, (I hope. Paid six months ago) 80 brakes.

Old school.....nice move Chris. What's next, PTO winch and an 8 track?

 

[OGBeno]

7x radiators are available in the US.

 

[cruiserdan]

Some, not all. AFIK the 4 cylinder variants are done.

Correct sir.

Appears the MT 1FZ and 1HZ radiators are the same, so OE shouldn't be an issue to source, if opted.

Don't know about shroud, resi or fan/fan clutch compatibility.

@beno or @cruiserdan ,

That said and knowing that HZs were H151F/HF1A equipped, is it a logical assumption that some MT and TC components would be available through Toyota USA, too?

Flywheel is different and think the only 75s that were equipped with 300mm clutch were 1FZ'd, but what about seals/gaskets for the H15XF?

Bearings, seals, so forth for HF1A?

 

[Delancy]

For future reference....when I have to ask Alberto to remind me how it assembles.

 

[Delancy]

A surprise from Rick D, via the gentleman I purchased the axles from, a near new e brake cable.

Now, to figure out the ebrake assembly, considering RS housings.

Steam-actuated lockers off a locomotive?

Better still.

These are powered by hot air.

More fruits of Alberto's labor and future reference pics.

Alberto's da bomb!

Alberto's da bomb!

If by that you mean that my garage looks like a bomb went off, then yes, I agree hahaha

NOT THAT, THIS!

Does anyone know if the shift fork rides on the same splined area of a rear cable locked diff shaft, as it would on an elocked shaft?

Reason I ask.

My uber 80 axles have the splines machined down in that area, to aid in extraction in the event of a twist or snapped shaft, and trying to determine viability before sending axles off to be built.
