    V8 1987 Toyota MKIII Supra 350 Chevy Engine Swap Update With Pics

    Paint coming soon. Here's a video and how much power it's putting down. I'd say 400 hp to the rear wheels with a boat load of torque to boot. Check out my other vids on youtube on how it's done. This thing is wicked at WOT. VT247 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ABgPZckscKE

    Starting and Revving 350 V8 MKIII Supra

    Got to get my front glass replaced. : ( Don't think they'll let me race with it all busted up. Previous owner lived out in the sticks NE of Louisville, KY. Said a limb fell on it. He had 2 Supra's. The other was newer, had a targa top and a turbo. But it had rust issues. Neither of them...

    Starting and Revving 350 V8 MKIII Supra

    Just got it done on Monday. Haven't had it to the strip yet, but it will be. LMAO @ 14's! Had this same set up in my Vette with 2.73 gears and tall 16' tires and ran 12's. Just replaced the 4.30's for a 3.72 LSD unit from a '89 up MKIII. Know I'm in the 12's, just how deep. Like to make a...

    350 Chevy Powered 1987 Toyota Supra MKIII

    I'm guessing around 400 HP / 400 lbs torque. Plan to later add a 125hp shot of N20. As it sits (no NOS), it'll run mid / low 12's (if it'll hook). Had this engine tranny combo in a Vette and it ran high 12's with a 2.73 axle ratio. VT247
