We was contacted by a member on ebay and was told he had a V8.
Which one of you was it and how did you do it? |

They didnt happen to say whether it was a 1st-7th gen celica did they....guessing that either a 1st or 2nd gen chassis can fit in a V8...lots of youtube videos of them.

It could be done, there's more room in the celica than my rx7 and I managed to fit a v8 and a turbo. The problem you run into the the celica is the steering. The power steering rack sits pretty much right in the location of where the bellhousing of the tranmission would fit. You'd have to get real creative with the front suspension to make it work 'properly'. -------------------- -93 Rx7, Turbo 6.1L v8, 725rwhp/760rwtq
