Re: TR magna Knock Sensor ???
howdy sigtool...i know this is old and you probably have this sorted by now but i thought i'd share my thoughts anyways incase anyone else is interested....the engine will run no worries without the knock sensor ( or oxygen sensor for that matter ) as the standard ecu just reverts to a safe mode ( i...

Re: balance shaft removal
cheers for the input...i reckon i'll keep 'em in as this particular engine is going to be turbo so no monster cam or angry idle and i like a 'happy' engine...unless anyone who has 'been there, done that' convinces me otherwise...

odd size oversize pistons in 4g63t
has anyone ever come across 0.25 pistons in a 4g63t? the engine is out of a starion ( '86 i think ) but no parts suppliers have heard of them...they don't exist apparently...yet they are clearly marked 0.25 and confirmed this by measuring...i bought the engine off ebay eons ago and have no idea of i...

4g63t starion engine into triton?
hi all, my father has a 4x4 triton and wants me to do a 'go hard' engine swap similar to my truck (4g54, hi comp, na, efi). i have both a 4g54 and a 4g63t (out of a starion) in my shed...the 4g63t is a wide block so will bolt up but i'm a little worried about drive-train(5 speed manual 4x4) and also...

Re: please help me
hi silently and welcome, i believe the engine that you have is a 'saturn' 4g32. i am unsure of which types of engine would be readily available to you in egypt but i would suggest an 'astron' 4g54 ( i am biased towards this engine as you can see by my username ) as it displaces 2.6 litres ( the 'big...
