HELP!: 7MGTE engine block info needed
Currently rebuilding a 7MGTE 3.0 Turbo engine. Got it all stripped for inspection and found that almost every component was knackered. So, bought another complete donor car and started again. All these parts are OK, but while the engine I started with was from a 1992 car (and so has oil spray jets mounted in the oil gallery inside the block, to cool/lubricate the little end bearings and piston undercrowns) the one I'm rebuilding now is from a 1989 car, and doesn't have the oil spray jets. I salvaged the jets before scrapping the knackered '92 block, but my machine shop aren't exactly sure where to drill and mount them in the '89 block. Can anybody supply me with an image/schematic or scan from a workshop manual (showing the jets in situ or removed from a later type block) in order to help clarify this point. It'd be much appreciated.

What are you going to use the car for?? If your road racing then the spray jets would be good for the wristpins. If it's street use or drag use it's better to keep the oil on the main and rod bearings.
