WOW!! Original Boss 351 with under 1000 miles.. that is rediculous. Do you have any pictures of it? I'm part of a 335-series forum that I'm sure would love to see it.

I'll keep my eyes open for a cheap m62 so I can better visualize a way of doing this and have something to work off of. Clearly using pulleys would be the best approach, and the more I think about it the simpler it becomes. Thanks for your help.

he CBFryman:

The MKI SC was introduced to the US in 1988 as a supplement to the MKI NA. It carried a 145hp supercharged and intercooled engine this being the main difference between it and the NA.

no argument on the turbo vs supercharger thing but dont make things up about mr-2s

aw11 i think is the engine code

[CBFryman]

your tlaking to me about MR-2's. they only came in NA and turbo versions. never s/c to my knowledge in america.

[Reed]

i just said they came with the aw11 engine that is a supercharged engine. in america in 88

the mk2 came with a turbocharged engine with the 3sgte and it came NA

"Changes in August 1986 saw the T-bar option added along with modifications to the rear suspension, brakes, rear lights, front bumper and interior. The most noticeable change saw the introduction of the 1.6ltr 4A-GZELU supercharged version raising the power from the NA models from 112hp to 145hp."

oh yeah my bad aw11 is the chassi code i think

Its a bit confusing... seems like they had 2 engine codes for every engine... like this:
"The early models came with a choice of engine and transmission, the slightly underpowered 1.5ltr (AW10) 3A-LU engine from the Corolla and the 1.6ltr (AW11) 4A-GELU engine from the Levin/Toreno. Transmission choices were either a 5 speed manual or electronically controlled four-speed automatic."
So yes, the 1.6L is an AW11. Perhaps the AW11 is the name for the basic design... like the shortblock. Add a supercharger and whatever heads/intake and its called 4A-GZELU. The combo that came in the Levin/Toreno is the 4A-GELU... Both are AW-11 style motors. Who knows, I'm just guessing. If you want to see a nightmare of engine codes, try to figure out Ford's from the 60s and 70s. Its a huge mess... Often they didn't bother to change the engine codes on lots of parts when they made changes, so you pretty much have to take apart the motors to figure out what you have exactly.
