Hey i'm Michael I have an 82 RA60 The paints not much chop but it runs alright a lil rusty in the normal spots. Engine: 21r-U this is pretty much the normal 21r-c but I swapped in the 21r-u which has a double barrel carburetter its the jap one haha 10 more kw's ish Interior: home made door cards and sub box. Project: I recently bought almost 2 1ggte's minus an extra set of piston but its all in parts so i'm rebuilding it and using the best bits and then slapping it into an ma61 with a single turbo conversion to go with it well thats the goal. ;D

Omg that motor had such bad compression something like 90 or less the petrol consumption is better with this one do u know what was done to the head ? Maybe ill swap it over some day That motor is so much slower than the one I have in it now. Screw 21r's too much of a tractor engine haha need to focus on something with a g near the end of the name haha

i think he got stooged on the head, had some welding done, new valves and surface grind.
i doubt the rings ever bedded in, seemed to have a lot of blowby. So the other red one donated its motor? I put a exedy clutch in it not long before he sold it, he loved it just upgraded to a ma61.
i drive a 21r every day, definatly a tractor motor lol
