    Hey guy I need some help. I have a little header. I have no idea what it fits. I'm ***uming it's for a 4 cylinder of some sort, but obviously I could also have half of a v8 set. Any help would be greatly appreciated. 20241001_225152.jpg 20241001_225214.jpg 20241001_225224.jpg 20241001_225238.jpg

    My first thought was a small Ford, 289/302, ect, but the tape on it makes me think I shouldn’t have thoughts.
    When I water out back later, I’ll verify what it’s not;).

    The tubes look tiny, most likely a 4 cylinder of some kind.

    Looks to be for a Toyota 2tc or 3tc 4 cylinder engine. Looked up gaskets and they match.

    Hello,

    When we were in our drag racing years at Lion’s Dragstrip near our house in Long Beach, we saw all kinds of homemade stuff on various engines and hot rod builds. the large hemi motors were for the top builders, while the smaller motors were plentiful in the nearby junkyards and could easily fit in just about anything.

    The small size 15 inches seems like it would be a good fit for one of the smaller 4 cylinder motors. MG motors, Triumphs, etc.

    This is a version of one of the top racers in the smaller FED race car cl***es. A Crosley 4 cylinder motor.

    It has been seen in several Tommy Ivo teen movies from the 60s also... since they were in the same club.

    I used to race a mini stock cl*** here that had 2TC engines and recognized it from those days....
