So today on the way to school I was thinking about this thread:
http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=40694 I thought the Altezza's BEAMS motor, was a v6. Then when I made it to class, I was thinking about it again, then I thought it was an Inline 6. Then after searching here, I found this thread: http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showto...lack+Top)+Beams If you look at the exaust manifold in one of the pictures (it shows a side view of the motor, manifold side) it leads me to believe that it is an Inline 4. So this brings up 2 questions. What is the Altezza (black top) BEAMS motor? (Inline6 or Inline4) [if the answer is Inline6, then ignore the next question, I know an Inline6 won't fit because it has to be mounted Longitudanaly, in the engine bay, and won't fit between the strut towers.] IF it is an Inline4, it should fit in the celica right? (with the 3s-ge transmission) I know the common idea is, "there is no way u can get it in." so Im really wondering, What exactly makes it not fit? (from the pictures it seems the Intake manifold, and the Exaust manifold are pretty large, and might cause problems, but as i keep looking at it, it doesn't seem impossible. (I used the search function, and Searched "Altezza (black top) BEAMS") This post has been edited by devilsden97: Sep 1, 2006 - 8:46 AM -------------------- ![]() Kawi Love |

The engine from that auction wouldn't mount up that easy. If like devilsden said you use the regular 3SGE transmission and a different header it might fit. It also might be too tall due to that it sits vertical and not on an angle like the 3SGTE or the 5SFE. You might be able to adapt an oiling system from one of those engines but it might not work 100% because of the different angles.
