Glad to hear the truck is holding up well and you are enjoy the fruit of your labor. Look forward to some video and more action photos.

 

Glad to hear you are enjoying it!

 

heck yea vids

 

you going to hit a dyno soon and get some good tuning in

 

Damn, really looking forward to finding this out, Do you think that you are getting 100HP or close to it? By the way, I decided to run my link reverse despite all the haters. I understand why but they have done it on so many vehicles that I have seen with moderate gains in HP over stock and there were no problems. Besides, I am not going to abuse it. I am going for a totally clean look like yours or Toshihide Kazama's

 

I would think its got about 220hp at the crank. Stock has about 110 depending on year.

Looks killer. For an overflow bottle, get an aluminum water bottle. Take a stick of 1/4" brake line, cut one end off to remove the fittings. Bend the other end 90 degrees. Cut the loop off the cap and drill a 1/4" and an 1/8" holes. Stick the brake line in, and JB Weld it into position from the inside. I used an ear plug in the breather hole to keep jb weld out. Total cost is about $5-10 each can. And there are lots of cool designs on them available. I have a ninja turtles one for my radiator. And a colored checkerboard for my valve cover catch can. Same concept but with 2 3/8" lines. I will find some pics of my setup if it doesn't all make sense

 

A '94 has 116HP and 140TQ, with that turbo he's probably getting 110hp to 120hp over stock... I hope. Would make me feel better about my decision.

 

Lol I would hope its making stock non turbo numbers atleast

 

That is truly a great idea... Seriously! I have to laugh though because everytime you explain your stuff, it always reminds me of MacGyver with the Mission Impossible theme as the soundtrack.

 

Oh, I meant "getting 110hp to 120hp MORE, Ooops, forgot that part. A quick edit will fix that...

 

I also think that all the time! He is the MacGyver of Toyota parts

 

What can I say to being called the MacGyver of Toyota parts but go me! I actually have almost every episode of that show on my computer, which is also my tv. Watch an episode or two almost every night

As for parts, I like stuff thats custom or just from other rides. Thats the kind of hot rodding I grew up with. Its cheaper and ends up with a less "out of the catalog" look in the end. Thats half the reason I sold my lowered 92 shorty for a 78 longbed.

As for the overflow/catch tank itself, I can't find pics, but heres some info on the oil catch can I made to run a line from the front valve cover port back to the intake flow. That gets a much better suction to help the PCV system work better. The inlet is the long side, and has a blockage side port for if it ever gets too gunked up. The short side gets a fairly gunk free suction of just air. I plan to run it to the port directly under the carb. On the valve cover I took the leftover from cutting a line flare off and stuck it through the front hole of the valve cover. The flare gives it a nice seat. I JB Welded it in with an ear plug inside to keep the line clear. That way I can run 3/8" line from start to finish on the system. Already have a small breather filter on the PCV valve itself.


Valve cover with 3/8 stub sticking out. Just clamp a hose right on.

 

I'm that way about Dragon Ball Z. I've got the complete Dragon Box Set(1-7).

 

I steal everything off the internet and save it on my hard drive. Which is good because our internet sucks. And no discs to mess with keeping safe and stored.

 

Heres the can pics. 2 line is oil vapor catch can. 1 line is radiator overflow with relief port to keep from pressurizing and not wanting to work.









For the mount, I take a wide hose clamp thats too long, and trim off a few inches of the tail. Then drill a hole through the slots for a 6mm bolt. Plenty of those in the engine bay. Then bend about 1" 90* in a vice with a hammer. Then take pliers or the vice and crimp that to nearly a 180. That can then slip over the hose clamp and be mounted to the inner fender or firewall or core support. Then stick the bottle in and snug up the clamp. When you do, it bends the bolt head into the can which helps as spin-lock to keep it tight. On the 78 theres a perfect recess shape on the inner fenders that holds the oil perfect. For your setup you'd have to find a spot.

 

And if I were you, I would change all those spring style hose clamps you're using on the radiator and heater hoses to screw type. They make nice stainless ones which would add some bling to the engine bay. And they stay tight. I hate the spring type.
