datzenmike Posted February 20, 2019 Report Share Posted February 20, 2019 Did you measure it to see if it fits? I don't think it will, without cutting the firewall or putting the rad in the bed. Don't fuck this truck up. Post pictures. 1 Quote Link to comment

If I can snap leaf springs with a warmed over, nearly stock engine, you are going to be hurting to keep your axle to stay in place. Quote Link to comment

I had to cut the floor and firewall, but it actually fits really good. Kind of a contradiction in terms. You may have made it fit , anything can be forced to fit and I hope you did a good job, but it doesn't 'fit'. The only excuse for carving up a 620.... is if you get it right. Were you able to keep the heater functional? Quote Link to comment

Or drive it only 6 months of the year. Quote Link to comment
Weez82 Posted February 20, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2019 Yep MT does mean Montana. The heater was completely gone when i got it but it is going to have a heater. All the cables for the heater were toast so i am updating all of that in time. 1 Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted February 20, 2019 Report Share Posted February 20, 2019 I had a 521 in southern Ontario. I survived 8 winters there not because of the stock heater but in spite of it. I ran hoses to an 9 x 10 x 1.5" air conditioner condenser in a home made box, mounted a fan on it from a '50s ford? and put it in where the glove box was. Connected to the defrost tubes. Christ the original heater core is smaller than the palm of your hand. Quote Link to comment
hosestop@msn.com Posted February 20, 2019 Report Share Posted February 20, 2019 Radiator in back like race truck ? also you maybe can fit 521 heater in there with flapper to control def. or heat no cables . Quote Link to comment
Bleach Posted February 20, 2019 Report Share Posted February 20, 2019 Put the radiator where the passenger seat goes. Mount a large electric fan that blows right onto you. 1. engine cooling done 2. heater done you're welcome 4 Quote Link to comment

G-Duax Posted February 20, 2019 Report Share Posted February 20, 2019 Nothing awesome about it, until it runs, and works, and doesn't look like a hack job. So you butchered a pretty nice 620, to put a 2.5L Toyota in it, when a KA24 would have been with in 4% of being the same displacement, without loosing space for a radiator, or chopping up the floor. And now, you just have to get it to run, something that I see 50% of the people putting the same engine into other cars fail to do. How did you get that long ass A340E into it, did you cut up the cross member on the frame ? Do you have a working ECU for the 1J ? Most of them have failing capacitors by the time the engine gets pulled in Japan. Are you already on the Supra & Cressida forums asking stupid questions ? I see a part-out in your future.....

G-Duax Posted February 21, 2019 Report Share Posted February 21, 2019 Oh, I have plenty of visions, do out side the box stuff all the time. Have won a lot of trophies, and a national championship by doing things other people never thought of in all sorts of motor sports, and solving industrial problems. Maybe I pre-judged you, prove me wrong, finish it, make it awesome. Hope it can out run a built KA, or K20, or 3SG Beams swap. Please figure out how to use a PC, and post progress pictures, like how you fit the JZ oil pan around the 620 suspension & cross member Quote Link to comment
