my new project

Recently sold my boosted 240sx, and was looking for another odd project. stumbled upon a pic of a clean corolla with a 4age 20v and want to do that.

heres my car.


I remembered see a 94 corolla for sale on craigslist. call the guy up and bought it the next day for $200. towed it home and bump started it. had really bad knock, but ran and a/c worked. got the pan pulled off and found out number 4 piston spun and destroy the bearing and crank. mostly likely do to a weak oil pump. O well even more of a reason to do a motor swap.

spun bearing


Now just looking around for a good engine supplier. Only junk thing is, i'm in hawaii and most places don't like shipping here. anyone know of a good engine supplier for toyota engines?
