Small Block Chevy Supra

lightwolf87 · 04-04-2007, 10:49 PM

I am building a 1987 supra. I have made a 389 small block chevy stroker motor, I have a good shot of NOS into it too. Backed by a 700r4 tranny. I know the rear end will need to go, by itself or with my help. It's my first car, and I need a little help. I have most of the car taken apart and the motor in and out. Any tips on what to use for motor mounts, exhaust and shifter did anyone use the original A/C and P/S pulleys beacuse i made a effort of trying to save them. Any help would be Appreciated.

You have changed the playing field for the supra. You may find a chevy forum more helpfull because the lot of us here are not doing what you are doing. We rebuild our toyotas to keep them toyotas not some half breed. No disrespect mind you I have thought of the same thing. But you need a chevy forum.

The rearend from a supra will hold gobs of power. 592rwtq here and no signs of trouble. Just make sure you have an LSD and use good oil in there.

Personally I'm not a big fan of bastarding a supra
I had a friend ask me if a mustang 5.0 engine would fit in his mk3
I told him if he ever did that
I will race him for slips
I'm gonna make sure I win
Then I would take his car to the yard so I can have it crushd and destroyed

But good luck with your build bro

You can't help BUT to laugh when you read this. Awesome, man.

You're prolly going to have to switch the entire drive train out, and its gonna require a rediculous amount of fabrication

on the contrary my friend
ill rather burn my supra to the ground b4 i put a chevy engine in it

I can see both sides of this because Chevy is making some outstanding crate engines. If the guy has the tools and the know how. F it.

I also agree with japanese muscle should stay that way. I wouldn't put a ford engine in a chevy..., maybe a jeep but as aforely stated.

Whatever floats your boat.
