    Arrow 2ZZ help

    Hi all I'm starting to look into the 2ZZ engine as a project I want to get as much info as possible.

    So any info or links you have please let me know, all info is appreciated.
    I am really interested in a RWD conversion for this engine so anyone who has info on this or knows of someone who has this info please let me know.

    So I'm in planning for a 2zz, so I want the info before anything goes ahead.

    So please help.
    Thanks

    i had looked into this breifly and actually bought a stuffed 2zzge motor as an experiment.
    i didn't get to far but i found a couple of things.
    1.There is no provision on the exhaust? side of the block for a engine mount, i did have thoughts of making some sort of cradle for it but like i said i didn't get that far.
    2.you'll have to get a remote oil filter setup because the oil filter points straight down and would foul on a rwd crossmember.
    3.the input spline is the same as a ae86 t50 gearbox which means you may be able to use a factory 2zz clutch if you use a t50 gearbox.
    4.the usual cut and shut inlet manifold jobbie
    5.no distributor so thats atleast 1 good thing!
    6.it has a 'front sump'

    I remember someone in the US doing this but can't remember the link, sorry.

    Thanks for the link. I had that document already. plus the I have one I got from a lotus elise website. just a comparison between the elise version and the celica version.
