March 28, 200521 yr What gaskets will I need when swapping out the motors. I'm going from a 1980 carbed 1.6 ea71 to a 1980 jdm carbed 1.6 ea71. I'm going to do the rear main seal, the valve cover gaskets, and both the intake and exhaust gaskets, but what else will I have to replace while I'm at it? Forgive my ignorance, this is my first subie motor swap.
March 28, 200521 yr oil pan, front main, the seals for the bolts on valve covers, atleast reseal oil pump/replace oil pump, maybe a new water pump
March 28, 200521 yr Author I know it has more than I needed, but it was cheaper to get the whole set. http://replacement.autopartswarehouse.com/parts/autopartswarehouse/viewImage.jsp?image=img.autopartswarehouse.com/live/A800020794ISH.JPG Is everything there that I need? I see the valve cover gaskets and a few other obvious ones like the carb base gasket. I don't see the oil pump gasket or the front main seal. Are they in there?
March 28, 200521 yr i think the front and rear main seals are in the inside one of the right valve cover gasket. the oil pump gasket is inside the left valve cover gasket but i think you need a "mickey mouse gasket" for the oil pump aswell, on second thought some of those o rings inside the head gasket may be used in the ea71. sorry but i dont reconnize any of the others.
March 29, 200521 yr Author I know some people will probably bash me, but the whole set was only 25.00 from autopartswarehouse.com I'm not going to use the head gaskets, so I don't see any worries. I've never used Inisho gaskets before but I have never heard anything bad about them. I picked up a new dizzy cap and rotor, as well as a new v-belt and a set of 4 NGK plugs. Couldn't find wires for it.
