Re: ARP 3tc main stud torque spec

Hi mate, Like you I cannot find a listing on ARP studs for the 3TC directly so the likes of Paradise Racing and others will simply be using a stud from another engine application which is the correct length.

Re: bike carbs on 3tc

Hi there mate,
Hemilove and 78sleeper on these forums appear to have been down the motorcycle carbs route with success so I would suggest look at the project gallery section for their ride threads and then hit them up for any extra info not visible!

Cheers,
Jason

Re: NME308's 3TC Turbo TA23 Celica

This is a video of the Jeffco transmission in action on a lap around the hills in my area the day before I headed off to the Toyota Nationals. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xyag0BxNzm8 The video does not show the outside kind of fortunately because the two times you hear a voice was just after I h...
