I.D this 4AGE.

Ae92 block with a bigport head or FXGT motor ?

ok, so what si the difference between these two engines?

Oil squirter's might not be there as psychofox mentioned and compression ratios differ between smallport and bigport so if it has a smallport bottom end it would have different pistons to a ae82 fx gt bigport engine ?

[oldcorollas]

pull out the spanners

[fixeruperer]

only smallport had oil squiters with the breather on the side of the block (intake side)

7 rib can have 18/40 internals...
AE86 was fitted with 7 rib blocks...
the crank pulley(if original) appears to be fwd(or mid engine)...
looking at the up close photo of the front of the head... you can see the fwd/mid engine block engine mount bolt holes... they DO NOT look used...

My current AE86 came with a 7 rib block with 18/40 internals. I know this wasn't a bastardized engine because the block had the vin plate rivetted to the engine....

exhaust side at very back of the block....



from the info... I'd say it likely was from an AE86.... although the crank pulley still is at odds with that. I'd bet you are likely to find 18/40 internals......


THAT(18/40) isn't bad *IF* you keep the engine n/a, for the stock 18/40 internals are the lightest of all the internals! A good machinist can prep the rods, balance the entire rotational assembly. Add a blacktop (or lighter still...) flywheel and you have the basics of an engine that transmits the most power to the driveline

It has 18/40 bottom end, No oil squirter's.

[Sam_Q]

can you take a picture of the top of one of the pistons?

looks like a kouki ae86 engine to me, but it isnt my area

[too_quick]

[oldcorollas]

take the other number on the piston (as well as 16020), plug into google = model of engine

[The Real Roadrunner]

what size cams ie lift values, that should tell you what it was out of

[Sam_Q]

wouldnt all bigports be 7.8mm?

[Cuzzo]

Well done stripping her down dude. No messing around

[thanhngo]

Crank pulley suggest it was a FWD 16v. you didn't get any auxilaries so probably doesn't make much difference now.

[The Real Roadrunner]

wouldnt all bigports be 7.8mm?

the rwd cams apparently have more lift and duration.
never checked myself but 30psi4agte would know the numbers.

those look like 9.4:1 pistons. If it's only got the 18/40 bottom end I personally wouldn't even bother putting it back together. If you've got an intended application for it you're probably better off starting with a better base engine - ie smallport AE92 hi-comp.
