fj20 info needed

[s13eater]

i think there is someone on here who can help, i need to know the measurement in inches of how far the rear of the fj20 rocker cover sits away from the bulk head, i'am thinking about 4 inches, i just need the get it sat right, so that i can get my front pipe tacked together and sort out my plenum, i think 30psi's fj went to a guy in ireland, cheers.

To be honest you don't need to be concerned about that. Much more important is getting the engine sat at the correct angle and height in the engine bay.

With the gearbox attached if isn't directly in line with the diff, it will smash the prop up, due to too much angle of the UJ's.

I'd get the engine setup first as far back as possible and ensure its sat at the correct height and angle before thinking about the exhaust.

Don't you have FJ20 engine mounts, or front cross member?

[s13eater]

why, is the fj front cross member different to the ca one ? if so in what way ? according to ben d, the engine mounts are just 46 mm blocks when the engine is sat on them. i have mine sat on 2 x50 mm ford mounts up to yet.

The mounts sit on 2 towers. They could be different I guess.

If you've bolted it up, then you'll know how how much gap is though wont you?

just been in touch with nissan and they are the exact same part number for the front subframe.
