Auto Transmission info

I have 2 TE27s both 1974 models. One has the A40 like my 76 did, but the other has a 3fc. Are the 3fc transmissions decent? I read that they are also a 3 speed.

Re: My Putting Guyver

I have heard them called jellybeans. Just about every wheel maker made them back in the day. Cool project car.

Cool setup. What do you have to do to the carb to make this work?

Re: te28 " the reborn " UPDATE Pg.3

Love the progress on your car. Do you have any more pics of the radiator core support? Did you just cut out the bad and weld a flat piece on the bottom? I am interested because I have to do the same on my TE27.

Re: Budget build to make a preppy 3TC

"Double valve springs from BRD"
If I were you, I would look into VW type 2 aircooled springs to save on $$$
I'm looking forward to your engine build. If you could, give a parts list to what you end up using and the cost so others can get an estimate on a build like this.

Re: 3tc ke30 swap

I think you would be better off finding a 2 or 3tc complete engine and trans. Freshen it up as you see fit, and put it in.

No prob. I had time and was willing to do someone's homework. Tercel US spec is cheaper then those SW20 ! If you handy you can build your own blocks DIY Leaf Spring Lowering Blocks! Hey boblook, Which year of tercel struts work? I guessed an 83 tercel wagon 4wd. How do these compare to the SW20's in...
