I have a 83 12a in my corolla, and it has blown apex seals. I'm probably picking up a 79 12a engine soon. Will the tranny/IM/header and all that fit from the 83 to the 79? I know they probably won't, but I can't find anything by searching on here or Googe. Any help is appreciated.

 

Yes.

 

So everything will bolt right up? Sweet. Then why do Racing Beat and folks sell stuff for the 79-80 and then the 81-85? Still wondering about all that. Thanks tho.

 

the reason racing beat list them differently is because of the way they come out at the end, the 81-85 had been routed with 3 catalytic converters stock as the 79-80 had the thermo reactors, so the bending at the bottom would probably be a little different. but at the block its all the same

 

Oh sweet. Thanks guys.

 

The exhaust systems and egr routing is different between the SAs and FBs. The later intake manis work on the SAs, but not the other way around because of the egr port exit point on the FBs, without a little bit of modding.

 

So my IM will work and my header and all that will work, right? I have racing beat intake and header, thats why I'm trying to get it cleared up 100%

 

Yes, from 3 of us.

 

That's why I just left a "YES" answer.LOL.

 

got any pics of this car? id like to see a 12a in a toyota thats not in the trunk

 

Morning all! Yes, curiosity is getting me also. Please post some pictures of your setup and car.

 

The clutch and PP maybe a different size, The early cars had a 215mm and the later a 225.

I don't know if that makes me like the corolla more or the 12a less.
