Hi Folks, A pal of mine has recently acquired a rubber bumper Midget. Apparently, it has a hole in the block where the piston tried to get out. He has done the math and concluded that he could get a

Someone in the Kansas City area is currently putting a GM 2.8 liter V6 in their Midget. If you are interested I can find out their name. He has written several articles in our newsletter concerning h

I would be interested in what you could tell us. I have a 2.8 sitting in my shop just waiting for a good use, and a 68 midget that could use a new motor. Let us know what you can find out, please. T

It's common for 1500s to do this. Did you know the 1500 engine started as 803cc and they did almost nothing to strengthen the bottom end when they increased the capacity! I think you'll find that tr

That's simply untrue on so many levels. Please, buy a book and do some reading. Anyways, many british engines including the A series grew from tiny engines. That's not unusual. -- Trevor Boicey Ottaw

A popular conversion over here is the toyota 4AGE motor. It fits with only a bonnet bulge and if you choose the right toyota gearbox fits without tunnel modifications. I personally don't like the ide

Do you know what model of Toyota the 4AGE came in? I can find no reference to it being in any of the cars imported into the US, but maybe it came under a different name in the same model car. Thanks

Actually I have done some reading and have owned a 1500. I also at the time had friends with 1500s (in Triumphs). Perhaps I should have said 'is a known failure mode of the 1500' rather than use the

I have a 4L V6 in my Ranger - There's no way that baby will fit in a Midget without MAJOR cutting. Did they make them with smaller V6's (like the 2.8L in the Blazer)? If so, that might be an easier f

Nory, I had an 85 Bronco II, which had a 2.8L V6. Although I no longer have the truck, it seems to me that this was still a pretty substantial hunk of cast iron compared to my little A series. Speak

The 4AGE Toyota motor comes in various versions for the MR2, the Corolla, the Corolla GTi and others I can't recall offhand. It is the 16V/20V 4 cylinder fuel injected motor. While it is notionally a

I have a 4 AGE motor in my '89 MR2 -- it's a great motor in that car and should be really great in the lighter Midget. The motor doesn't have a lot of low end torque, but it loves to be reved. It has
