93xf 2 Posted March 31, 2015 Just wondering what major modifications are involved in fitting a turbo 4L SOHC into a td corty engine bay (firewall, heater box, trans tunnel, sump etc etc.) Also, is there any difference between the trans tunnels on a manual vs auto TD in terms of fitting a C4? If it has been covered before could someone point me to where? Thanks . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
78xcgxl 241 Posted March 31, 2015 If your going go this route, i would strongly suggest using a DOHC Barra engine as the turbo setup will be already there, much better engine for pretty my the same amount of work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TUFE 284 Posted March 31, 2015 I dont think sohc is to be under-estimated. Alot of bits are made for them and if your after a simpler setup you cant go wrong. On the other hand, dohc have alot going for them too. Turbo cortinas are awesome, goodluck with the swap Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PRO250 1,506 Posted April 1, 2015 Bash the passanger floor in with a sledge hammer and it will fit but the sump you will have to make twin cam engine has a windmill yes will it fit into a Cortina no you will have to remake the mainfolds sump will not clear anything theres a fair bit to it and not a conversion for the faint heartedjust boost the crossy 2 wagoon and TUFE reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

78xcgxl 241 Posted April 1, 2015 A FG sump would be a good starting point as the sump is to the rear like the sump setup on a 6 cylinder cortina. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Would a serpentine setup work in a TD? with manual steering and no aircon.. or do you need the v belts? what intake manifold fits? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
